I love making big batches of salads to keep in the fridge. It’s an easy protein choice to package up for lunch, and also makes a great side dish for supper.
- 2 cans lentils, rinsed
- 2 cups instant long grain or brown rice, (cooked with recommended amount of water, 1/2 tsp butter and 1/2 tsp of vegetable seasoning like Vegeta)
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries
- 1/2 cup sliced almonds
- 2 tsp vegetable oil
- 2 tsp lime juice
- 1/2 cup canned mandarin orange sections and 3 Tbsp juice from the can
- 1/2 tsp fresh grated ginger (optional)
mix it all together, cover and refrigerate!
