If you like cheese and salad then this salad is for you. I tried this salad last year at work and it was delicious. Therefore, I found myself yearning for it again. There are two things you need to do to make this salad quickly and get a head start: soak the lentils and get steamed beetroot that has already been cooked.
This is the kind of salad that you eat lunch and you will be full. This is because lentils are a type of pulse. In addition, lentils lowers cholesterol, risk of diabetes and reduces blood pressure amongst many other things.
