Chilled Lentil Arugula Salad With Gorgonzola

Print Recipe Pin Recipe

Ingredients

  • green lentils
  • arugula (or spinach)
  • sun-dried tomatoes
  • artichokes
  • pine nuts
  • gorgonzola or roquefort
  • capers

Instructions

  • Cook lentils and let cool completely (you can even do this a day in advance and store in the fridge). They do best with a 1:3 ratio with water or liquid. Bring to a boil and then simmer, covered, for about 30-40 minutes.
  • Chop artichokes into smaller chunks.
  • Combine arugula, chilled lentils, capers, tomatoes, artichokes, and pine nuts into a large bowl. Toss with dressing to combine.
  • Add blue cheese chunks on top. It’s great served right away, but can also last a couple of days in the fridge!
