Salad
Dressing
Directions
Cook the freekeh and lentils until tender in salty water.
Once cooked, chill freekeh and lentils in a fridge.
Gently toast the seeds and nuts in a pan over medium heat, then removed to cool down.
Combine all dressing ingredients and whisk together.
Assemble salad and pour over dressing, allow it to soak into the salad for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Recipe Note
You may want to soak the lentils overnight for quicker results. Freekeh doesn’t require soaking!
