This recipe can't be faulted in any way - it is simply sensational. Well-written and easy to make. We got a very flavourful salad which was enjoyed by the entire family.

A wonderfully delicious salad with very clear instructions. I made a few small changes to meet my taste preferences: I used two medium-sized onions and added three cloves of minced garlic in step two, and used only 11/2 tablespoons of Dijon mustard, but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. A great blend of flavours and textures which my luncheon guests and I really enjoyed. Thank you for sharing this recipe.

This was very good and has a lot of flavor. I wanted to make the light version of this, so used lean turkey bacon (and halved it) and only one teaspoon of olive oil. I also subbed half broth for the water, since I had it in the frig, added two cloves of garlic to the pot, and left out the mustard and raw onions for personal preferences. My only "complaint" would be if the amount of liquid were to match what the lentils absorb, there would be one less step of having to drain them. But that doesn't take away from the yummy flavor of this. I think tiny chunks of cooked potatoes would be awesome in this! Portions are very generous, I would say this feeds 10-12 people.

This is very tasty. The only change I would make next time is adding garlic as suggested by one of the other reviewers.

This is a stellar salad! The only change I made was to use extra virgin olive oil, a splurge I usually make for salads, and well worth it in this case. I cannot sing enough praises for this salad. Thanks, DeeCooks! Made for 123 Hit Wonders Tag.
