Lentil Salad

Step-by-step method

Let’s cook

At a glance

You're looking at a hearty, protein-packed lentil salad that comes together in about 30 minutes once your lentils are cooked and cooled. The main event involves grating vegetables, hard-boiling eggs, and a quick pan-sauté to bring everything together—nothing tricky here, just straightforward chopping and mixing that makes for a satisfying gluten-free meal.

  1. 1/4

    Cook the lentils

    Soak the lentils in water overnight. In the morning, drain off the water, cover with fresh water and cook until tender. This takes about 15 minutes. Just before they're fully soft, add salt and cook for another 5 minutes or so.

    Boil the eggs and prep the vegetables

    Drain the lentils and tip them into a colander. Leave to cool completely. Meanwhile, hard-boil the eggs and prepare the vegetables. Peel the carrot and grate it on the coarse side of the grater. Cut the pepper into small pieces.

About this recipe

I'd soaked the lentils in a pot overnight. But when I woke up the next morning, the flu had caught up with me. Luckily, I have the perfect husband, and he whipped up a fantastic salad that had us both grinning from ear to ear. The kids, of course, wouldn't touch it. No surprise there.
