Notes

  • This Mexican Style Lentil Detox Salad is all about the lentils—but that’s not to say you can’t go for chickpeas, black beans or white navy beans—or a combo! I really urge you to try the lentils in this Detox Salad!
  • Don't like guacamole? As an alternative dressing,  a simple splash of lime, olive oil, and salt will work great.
  • As another dressing option can use this honey Greek salad dressing .
