An instant meal couldn’t be any easier. I learned this recipe from the “sample’s desk” at my Trader Joe’s. Funny thing is, I can’t find any employees who have heard of this recipe. I ask at every store. So I’m spreading this around. It’s a favorite, especially for a cool, summer salad meal.

Dinner 911—A five-minute salad that is as delicious as it is nutritious. It’s great when it’s too hot to cook, but it’s a hit all year round!

Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 pkg Trader Joe's cooked lentils
- 1 pkg Trader Joe's Healthy 8 Chopped Veggie Mix
- 1 bottle Trader Joe's Goddess Dressing
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl: Gently stir the dressing into the lentils until the lentils separate.
- CHEF'S SECRET: add two tablespoons vinegar to the empty dressing bottle, replace cap, shake vigorously, and add the remaining loosened dressing to the salad.
- Add the cut vegetable mix. Toss gently to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Chill until ready to serve.
- For leftovers: I like to add a tablespoon of vinegar to the next-day leftovers. It helps freshen the taste.
