Second recipe for the day.  Another very healthy salad that very easy to make.  Lentil Salad

This is one of my favorite salad. It’s simple, fast and delicious.  There are man variations of this salad from country to country but I have two variations and the only difference is if you add tomatoes or not

Ingredients
2 cups cooked lentils
1/8 cup olive oil
1 big bunch of fresh cilantro
3-4 strings of green onion
1 medium size garlic clove
1/4 tsp red crushed chili pepper
1 tsp cumin
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Salt and pepper to taste
1 large tomato seeded and diced(Optional)

Directions
Place lentils in a mixing bowl. Chop the cilantro, green onions and the garlic(easier to just press the garlic), mix all ingredients well, adjust seasoning and enjoy.  If you like the taste of good tomatoes you can chop a large tomato into 1/8 cubes after seeding it.
