Lentil and Brown Rice Salad

There's a little bakery in my neighborhood that has these fantastic little salads for takeout. The lentils and rice make for a hearty and satisfying lunch. I like to use French green lentils, because they hold their shape nicely, but any lentil will do fine.

    @genac - Love the suggestions! Lemon basil and crushed red pepper are a great combo idea.

    My disclaimer: Recipes are suggestions! We enjoyed this recipe tremendously but made few tweaks. It's summer and the veggies are awesome so I added fresh tomato, cuke, yellow squash, lemon basil, a dash crushed red pepper, and a splash of homemade vinaigrette.

    We are transitioning from vegetarian to vegan and have enjoyed your website tremendously! Thanks!
