Lentil, Carrot, Cabbage, and Broccoli Salad with Cumin, Date, and Lemon Dressing

Fresh, earthy, and a little bit sweet - a portion of this lentil salad makes the great basis to a meal. The cumin, date, and lemon dressing is thick ...and punchy—designed to coat rather than drizzle. As the warm lentils and vegetables release their natural juices, it loosens slightly, clinging beautifully to every bite. It’s a great one for picnic season: hearty enough to hold its own, even after a few hours in a container, and even better paired with a dollop of hummus or some grilled chicken or fish.
