1 small can of chick peas
1 small can of lentils
a handful of cherry tomatoes
a couple of radishes
a couple of chopped carrots
the juice of one lemon
about 1/4 cup of EVOO
5/6 leaves of fresh mint - chopped
1/4 of a medium red onion - finely chopped (or more if you prefer)
salt + pepper to flavor
Start by peeling, washing and then chopping the carrots in a food processor (alternatively, you may use a cheese grater to grate them).
Wash and cut the tomatoes in half.
Wash and chop radishes.
Empty the chick pea and lentil cans by draining excess liquid.
Place all these ingredients in a bowl.
Make dressing in a jar: juice of one lemon, EVOO, salt and pepper. Close lid and shake well. Add to salad. Sprinkle with chopped mint. Toss.
You can be creative and include chopped cucumbers, maybe some sultanas or even crumbs of Feta cheese.
Buon appetito!
