Ingredients
- 1 cup dry lentils
- 1 (14-ounce) can chickpeas drained and rinsed*
- 3 large leaves kale chopped
- 1 tablespoon yellow curry powder to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1 navel orange zested and peeled into sections
- 1/3 cup dried cranberries
- 1/3 cup feta cheese
- 1/4 red onion thinly sliced
Instructions
- Add lentils to a pot and cover with 2 inches of water. Cover and bring to a full boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, until lentils have softened, but are still al dente, about 10 to 15 minutes. Drain any excess water and transfer lentils to a mixing bowl.
- Add the chickpeas and kale to the mixing bowl with the lentils. Add in the curry powder, sea salt, olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic, and orange zest. Toss well until everything is well-combined.
- Toss in the peeled orange, dried cranberries, feta, and red onion. Add sea salt and/or additional curry powder to taste. Serve alongside your favorite entree, or enjoy as a meal.
Notes
- *If using dry chickpeas, you're looking for just under 2 cups of cooked chickpeas
