mediterranean diet: broccoli & black lentil salad

I was introduced to black lentils by the legume lady at Alicante’s Mercado Central and what a nice suggestion! They keep their shape in salads, offer a nice toothy finish and that beautiful black color is the perfect protein canvas for salad fixings loaded with bright, rainbow colors. Just a handful of ingredients and a little bit of time for a healthy, protein-packed lunch!
