Lentil, Feta & Cherry Tomato Summer Salad with Balsamic dressing
In need of a quick picnic number the other day I put this together from what I had in my fridge and cupboards and it was just the ticket for sitting on the grass in the rain and keeping lots of people happy f all ages.
Cook the lentils as packet instructions, (you want them to be firm and not overcooked and spitting or your salad will have no texture), and leave to cool a little as you prepare the rest.
Chop the tomatoes and slice the red onion finely. Add all the salad ingredients to a large bowl and toss together gently with a salad spoon and fork. If taking to a picnic use the same bowl and just cover it to travel.
Make the dressing in a jam jar by adding all the ingredients, putting the lion firmly and shaking hard until it looks smooth, creamy and well mixed.
Mix the two together to serve.
This keeps really well in the fridge for up to 5 days.

I just want to say Thank You to everyone who supported me through the years. My name is Manuel Franco, New Berlin, Wisconsin. My story of how I won the Powerball lottery of $768.4M is a bit of a tale. I have been playing Powerball tickets for 6 years now since I turned 18. I bought my first ticket on my 18 birthday. I was feeling very lucky that day because I had contacted Dr. Odunga Michael to help me with the winning Powerball numbers. I really had that great great feeling that I looked at the camera wanting to wink at it. I only did a tiny part of it and trusted him. He gave me the numbers after I played a couple other tickets along with it for $10. I checked my ticket after the winnings came online and saw the numbers were correct including the Power play. I screamed for about 10 minutes because it felt like a dream. I had won $768.4M. You can check my winning testimony with the lottery officials just with my name search. Thank you Dr Odunga. Well, his email is odungaspelltemple@gmail.com and you can also call or Whats-app him at +2348167159012 so you guys can contact him
