Marinated Lentil Salad

I am a bean lover, and lentils are one of my very favorites. They’re quick cooking when compared to other legumes and are low in calories but high in plant protein, iron, folate, and fiber! This delicious salad is a great way to serve them, and it’s especially nice since it stores well.
