VEGAN LENTIL SALAD WITH CAULIFLOWER ๐๐
Hey lovely Steemian Foodies!
I hope you're all doing great! Today I would like to share one of my favourite vegan salads with you. This yummy lentil salad is super easy to make and can be variously modified. Here I share the version with cauliflower but of course you can exchange it with a seasonal veggie of choice. Also, with some mint and tahini you can make an oriental-style lentil salad.
I love this dish because it is perfect to take to work, school or even to parties since you can enjoy it warm and cold. If you are a fan of lentils like me, you should definitely give this super simple and healthy recipe a try. It's not only tasty but a very good source of protein, fiber and iron. Enjoy! ๐
