I used good bell peppers and lots of fresh-squeezed lime in this. The serrano pepper I'd bought got lost somewhere in the fridge so I had to use canned jalepenos. This was still a wonderful dish that got better the longer it sat. (But it only sat for a day in spite of the fact that I made a double recipe. It was very popular.) I recommend that you drain the chickpeas and lentils for awhile in a colander in the sink -- this prevented my salad from getting soggy. Read More

(50) This was great but I did some modifications. I eliminated the olive oil to cut the calories and I added feta cheese in place of that. I also upped the lentils to 1 cup and eliminated the garbanzo beans. I added chooped fresh mint and some white balsamic vinegaar garlic powder and cumin. Read More

(42) Wow was this good! The fresh Cilantro was really the star and really brightened the flavor. And the lime just pulled it all together. I made a couple changes because I forgot to buy some ingredients or they were not available. I substituted some sweet onion for the green onion- a red one would have been fine too. Also it's January so there are no real tomatoes on the east coast right now so I used canned tomatoes with jalapeno peppers (well drained) in place of the tomatoes and hot peppers- gave it the perfect amount of heat. This is a definite do again! Thanks for a terrific recipe! Read More

This is a great salad! I gave this recipe four stars for quickness since I buzzed my veggies through a food processor. The peppers would be more colorful in the dish if chopped larger but that would add to the time. And it still presented nicely! I added extra cilantro and lime which was great and I used very mild peppers. My four year old liked to eat the lentils but nothing else. My husband and I love it! Read More

I had this salad at a Morrocan themed meal at my book club gathering. It looked beautiful but it didn't have much flavor...I'm wondering if the pepper was left out? I would try again though. Don't want to give it a lower rating if something was substituted or left out. I don't think folks should give a low review when they change the recipe which is something I've observed with some of the reviews on this site. Doesn't seem fair! Read More

(13) Easy to make sort of a mix betweeen salsa and bean salad. Very pretty and refreshing. Our kids liked it but we left out the hot peppers. Read More
