Thermomix Sun-dried Tomato and Lentil Salad

Thermomix Sun-dried Tomato and Lentil Salad

The Sun-dried Tomato and Lentil Salad is topped with the flavours from the tahini balsamic dressing. This thick dressing coats all the ingredients in the salad which gives it a bigger burst of flavour. You can taste it in every mouthful. I love to make this quick salad for a healthy snack so I always have a can of lentils and the dressing ingredients on hand. That way I have no excuse not to make it.

The full sun-dried tomato and lentil recipe is exclusively featured in the Salad Collection cookbook. For that reason, the quantities and steps are not listed in this blog post. However a list of ingredients is provided to help you with your shopping list and meal planning (especially helpful if you use the paprika recipe app) and also some tips.

INGREDIENTS

Here is a list of ingredients you will need to make this recipe.

• brown lentils (tin or dried)
• tahini balsamic dressing
• baby spinach
• sun-dried tomatoes
• pitted kalamata olives
• red onion
• fresh basil
• feta (optional)

COOKING TIP

•  Make your own tahini and/or balsamic vinegar reduction ahead of time and store them in the fridge. That way you will have the ingredients on hand to make up the dressing for when needed.
• You can substitute the sun-dried tomatoes for cherry tomatoes
• Add some roasted pumpkin, sweet potato or caramelised onion for an additional flavour combination.
