  • 1 can of lentils, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can of chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 1 lebanese cucumber, quartered & sliced
  • 1 capsicum, chopped
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 handful herbs of your choice - basil, mint, coriander...
  • Any other salad veggies you fancy :)

Dressing
  • 1/3 cup olive oil
  • 1/2 avocado
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons of dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • Juice of one lemon
  • salt + pepper to taste

Directions
Prep all your veggies and place in a serving dish.
To make the dressing, place all dressing ingredients into a small bowl and blend together with a whizz stick (a fork will also do a good job).

Drizzle over salad and mix well! Enjoy :)
