Sprouted Lentil Salad

Sprouting lentils makes them more easily digestible for the body. The lentils in this salad are also a robust source of protein.

Ingredients

Makes 2 servings

2 cups lentil sprouts (see the sprouting how-to here)
1 pinch sea salt
1 1/2 teaspoons curry powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 cup thinly sliced radishes
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1/3 cup very thinly sliced green onions
1/2 cup chopped tomato
1/2 cup thinly sliced cucumber
black pepper, to taste

Directions

In a medium bowl, combine lentil sprouts, cucumber, tomato, green onions, cilantro, and radishes. Toss lightly.

In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, vinegar, garlic powder, curry powder, salt, and black pepper. Drizzle the dressing over the salad, and toss lightly to coat.
