Salad #49 – Asian Lentil and Mango Salad

June 4, 2014 by danawyyc 1 Comment

Asian Lentil and Mango Salad 3 I was looking over the salads I had written so far and I could hardly believe that that after 48 salads, none of them contain lentils! Lentils are great in salads so I couldn’t let that stand. This salad is fresh, delicious and unexpected. I love it and and I bet you will too. Asian Lentil and Mango Salad 3

Salad #49 - Asian Lentil and Mango Salad
Author: Dana
Recipe type: Salad
 
Ingredients
  • 1 can of lentils rinsed and drained
  • 2 ripe mangos
  • 2 bell peppers (I used yellow and green)
  • 2 large carrots
  • 3 green onions (1 reserved for topping)
  • cashews chopped or whole
  • Spicy Citrus Vinaigrette:
  • Juice of 1 small orange
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 2 tbsp sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp rice wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
  • 1 tsp chili sauce (sambel oelek)
  • 1 garlic clove minced fine
  • salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
  1. Dice mangos, carrots, bell peppers and green onions.
  2. Mix together with the lentils in a large bowl (reserve some of the green onion for garnish).
  3. Whisk the dressing ingredients together in a bowl or shake in a small container with a lid. If you want a smoother dressing you could blend it together instead.
  4. Toss the vegetables with the dressing.
  5. Top each bowl with cashews and green onions.
