Healthy Chopped Lentil and Mustard Salad

Chopped Lentil and Mustard Salad

1 cup lentils

3 small carrots

2 scallions chopped

2 stalks of celery

1 red bell pepper

1/2 cucumber

2 tbsp Olive oil

1/2 lemon, juiced

2 tbsp steaming water

1 tsp ground mustard seed

1 tsp lemon pepper

1 tsp turmeric

1 tsp paprika

1 tsp minced onion

1 tsp dulse flakes

sea salt if needed

Soak lentils for 8 hours or over night with clean pure water. Rinse and drain twice daily until little tails appear. If eating raw you will need to repeat this for 2-3 days.

To steam, I steamed them the day after they soaked over night. Place water in pot with steaming basket, cover pot with lid. Turn temperature to high. When water boils, turn heat down to medium and continue steaming for about 15-20 min.

While the lentils are steaming chop up all your veggies into small pieces.

Combined all ingredients well, salt if needed and serve!
