🇬🇷🥗Greek Style Lentil Salad

Today I was reminded of this awesome easy recipe that is basically a Greek style salad with lentils. It’s always a hit, especially if you have vegan guests. I paired it with some chicken tonight for dinner.You can make it yours by adding, green beans, pomegranate, rocket, couscous, freekeh, other herbs like coriander or mint, spices like cumin or paprika. The options are endless🙌, but here is my simple satisfying option.

Ingredients

250 g cherry or baby roma tomato, halved

1 Lebanese cucumber, chopped

1/2 -1 red onion or spring onion, chopped

1 red capsicum roasted, sliced.I used 4 baby caps. (drizzle with oil and bake at 220 for 10 -15 mins)

10 olives, pitted and halved

Handful parsley, chopped
