Lentil Salad

Canned Beans are very handy to stock in the pantry. Using them, a nice salad like this one can be made very easily. You may wish to cook Lentils by yourself as it doesn’t take long to cook them. I still enjoy using Canned Lentils. Today I used Cucumber, Grape Tomatoes, Carrot, Red Capsicum and Onion. Naturally, you can use whatever salad vegetables you have in hand. Lettuce and other leafy vegetables such as Rocket would be nice.
