cucumber and lentil thing — dead refreshing

Been on a bit of a lentil kick lately, mainly because a bag of green lentils has been staring at me from the cupboard for three weeks and I needed to do something about it before the guilt set in. Basically cooked them off, let them cool properly (this bit matters — hot lentils just go soggy with everything), then threw in half a cucumber diced small, a load of fresh mint, some thinly sliced spring onions, a handful of cherry tomatoes. Dressing was just lemon juice, olive oil, a bit of cumin and some salt. That's genuinely it. The ROI on this is unreal for about 12 minutes of actual effort. Holds up brilliantly in a container at my desk too which is the whole point — nothing worse than a salad that's weeping by 1pm.

aye, same with chickpeas — cold out the fridge with a bit of lemon, dead good on a hot day
