A lovely healthy salad that will keep you going until dinner. I found this on the back of a packet of French style lentils. Ingredients:

1 bay leaf |
450 g baby beets, drained & cut in half |
1/2 cup red onion, finely sliced |
1/2 cup italian parsley, chopped |
1/2 cup coriander leaves, chopped |
1 garlic clove, minced |
salt & pepper |
3 tablespoons olive oil |
1 tablespoon grainy mustard |
2 tablespoons lemon juice |
1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled |
Directions:
1. Bring the water, lentils & bay leaf to boil in a medium saucepan, reduce heat & simmer until tender, approx 25 minutes.
2. Drain & remove bay leaf.
3. Combine olive oil, lemon juice, mustard, garlic & salt & pepper, pour over lentils and lightly toss.
4. Toss the dressed lentils together with the onion, beets, parsley & coriander.
5. Top with crumbled feta.
