Lettuce and Lentil Salad is a refreshing and nutritious dish blending crisp greens with protein-packed lentils. Typically found in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines, this salad often combines romaine or mixed lettuce with cooked lentils, chopped cucumbers, tomatoes, red onions, and fresh herbs like parsley or mint. It's dressed with a simple vinaigrette of olive oil, lemon juice, and spices, adding tangy and earthy notes. High in fiber, plant-based protein, and essential vitamins, the dish promotes digestion, supports muscle health, and boosts immunity. While naturally low in fat and calories, it’s rich in iron, folate, and antioxidants, making it a wholesome choice for vegetarians or anyone looking to eat clean. To keep it healthy, avoid overloading with salted toppings or creamy dressings. This vibrant salad is both a light main meal and a versatile side dish.
