Ingredients
Method
- In a medium bowl, gently combine the cooked lentils, diced tomatoes, and diced avocado.
- Add the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to the bowl.
- Gently toss all ingredients together until well combined, ensuring even distribution.
- Serve immediately for best flavor, or chill for at least 15 minutes for a refreshing meal.
Notes
- For the best texture, ensure your lentils are cooked al dente, not mushy. Rinse them well after cooking if you're using canned.
- If your avocado is under-ripe, place it in a paper bag with a banana for a day or two to speed up ripening.
- To prevent the avocado from browning if making ahead, add an extra squeeze of lemon juice directly onto the avocado pieces after dicing. It helps preserve its vibrant green color.
