From an America's Test Kitchen magazine titled 30-Minute Suppers. I haven't tried this yet but it looks fantastic! It calls for garlic sausages but I'm sure you could use any sausages you wanted to. Ingredients:
1 cup french green lentil, rinsed and picked over |
3 cups water |
1/4 teaspoon baking soda |
1 1/2 lbs garlic sausages |
2 teaspoons dijon mustard |
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar |
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil |
1/2 cup walnuts, toasted and chopped |
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. Place the lentils, water and baking soda in a microwave-safe bowl. Cover and microwave until the lentils are soft, about 20 minutes. Drain, then rinse under cold water.
2. Meanwhile, grill the sausages over medium fire, turning frequently, until browned on all sides and cooked through, about 7-9 minutes.
3. Whisk the mustard, vinegar and olive oil together in a bowl. Toss the lentils, walnuts and parsley with the dressing and season with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Serve the grilled sausages over the salad.
