Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 1/2 cups green lentils
  • 3 cups water
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt more or less to taste
  • red pepper flakes optional, pinch
  • 1/2 lime juiced
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1/4 cup cilantro minced leaves
  • 1 small Mango sliced thinly
  • 1 apple sliced thinly
  • 1/2 cup grape tomato
  • 1 cup purple cabbage sliced
  • 1 cup corn kernel cooked
  • 2 cups kale stems removed, sliced fresh

For the Guacamole Dressing:

  • 1 avocado peeled and deseeded
  • 3 scallions
  • 1/2 cup cilantro leaves
  • 1 lime juiced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons water (use sour cream for a more creamy effect)
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt (more or less to taste)

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 .
