I thought this was good, but my family wasn't sold on it. Thank you for posting.

    I really liked this. I cooked the lentils a little too long, though, so it was a bit mushy (my fault). I'm not sure I care for the sugar either, so maybe next time I'll leave it out and see if I like it better that way. Overall, tasty and very easy - great for summer in 100+ degree Texas!

    Yummy salad that I had for lunch today. I used a nice deli mustard that had horseradish in it. Loved the flavor of this salad. I halved the recipe. I made this for the German Spirits Challenge. Thanks Mordreth!

    Gee, Elmotoo, I halved the recipe and my BF and I thought it was just right:D It was the delicious mustard vinaigrette that really made this recipe. I used Koskiusko mustard (my favorite, though I think it's only available in New York City markets) and white wine vinegar.
