LENTIL SALAD WITH WALNUT OIL
This dish is inspired by a recipe from "The Paris Cookbook," by Patricia Wells. I'd never thought about using walnut oil, which is high in omega-3 fats, with lentils. It's a great combination. Be sure to keep walnut oil in the refrigerator once it's opened.

Remove from the heat. and discard the onion, carrot, garlic cloves and bay leaf. Drain through a strainer set over a bowl.

CRUNCHY LENTIL WALNUT SALAD
This is a copycat of the fabulous Lentil Walnut Salad from the Kebab Shop in California. You want to make sure not to overcook the lentils...they should have a little bite to stand up to the crunchiness of the walnuts. Unlimited modifications could be made with additions, subtractions and/or tweaks... pine nuts instead of walnuts, add goat cheese or feta, add crunchy carrots too? Enjoy!

Steps:
- Rinse the lentils and put them in a saucepan with plenty of lightly salted water and the bay leaf. Bring to a boil, decrease the heat to a simmer, and cook for about 20 - 25 minutes, until the lentils are tender but still have a good crunch/bite to them. Be careful to not overcook them.
- While the lentils are cooking, make the dressing. Mix the vinegar, mustard, oil, garlic, salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the dressing as you like to your taste preferences.
- Drain the lentils well and mix them into the dressing while still warm, stirring to cook the lentils. Remove the bay leaf and let cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally.
- Add in the walnuts and green onion. Taste, and add additional salt, if desired. I serve the salad at room temperature or warm. The salad can be made up to 2 days ahead and refrigerated. Let it come to room temperature before serving; it may need to be re-seasoned once refrigerated.
