Warm salad with spinach and lentils

Today, I had a fridge full of half-eaten vegetables. I am not great with left-overs, so I’m on a mission to be better at using up food that I have in the fridge instead of always shopping for more. This is what I had in my fridge today, but you can use whatever you have in yours. I would always use lentils, spinach and chili, apart from that- knock yourself out! 😉

Chop finely and fry quickly in a pan:

• red onion
• garlic
• carrot
• zucchini (squash) – put half in the pan now, save the other half for later
• yellow pepper

Add to the pan just before serving:

• cherry tomatoes, halved
• lentils, cooked and rinsed
• spinach
• the other half of the zucchini, finely chopped

Fry for a few seconds- until the spinach has just wilted. The zucchini should be crunchy!

• Soy sauce
• a little bit of Mango Chutney
• lime juice
• coriander, chopped
• salt and pepper

Mix, taste and pour over the salad.

Today, served with grilled chicken, but is just as good on it’s own, or with fish or good bread.

Enjoy!
