Yesterday I was so thrilled to be creating in the kitchen a new colorful and delicious salad. I’m going to call this Happiness Salad. It doesn’t take many ingredients but is a powerhouse of nutrition.
To make Happiness Salad:
3/4 cup of lentils
3/4 cup of quinoa (rinsed well beforehand)
1 tbsp of organic vegetable soup base
Water
3 large celery stalks chopped finely
1/3 of a purple onion chopped finely
1/3 of a yellow bell pepper chopped finely
1/3 of a red bell pepper chopped finely
1/3 of an orange bell pepper chopped finely
3 tbsp Original Rice Wine Vinegar
2 tbsp honey OR 2-3 dates chopped finely
Kirkland’s Organic No-Salt Seasoning
Bring lentils and quinoa (covered one inch with water) and the vegetable soup base to a very slow simmer and simmer until done but not mushy; drain and set aside to cool
Chop all vegetables
Place lentils and quinoa in large mixing/serving bowl
Add all other ingredients and stir/fold gently
Chill in refrigerator. Eat as a side dish or you can top romaine lettuce and greens with it.
