Vibrant salad with lentils, buckwheat, spinach, beets, and carrots, tossed in a flavorful rose petal dressing.
Ingredients:
  • 0.25 cup dry lentils
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground paprika
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground rainbow peppercorns
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground mace
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 0.25 teaspoon crushed rose petals
  • 4.25 cups water
  • 0.25 cup buckwheat groats, rinsed
  • 1.5 ounces baby spinach leaves
  • 0.5 cup shredded cooked beets
  • 0.5 cup shredded carrots
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped green onions
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
Instructions:
  • Place the lentils in a bowl and cover with cool water, allowing them to soak for at least 2 hours. Drain and rinse before using.
  • Combine a medley of flavorful ingredients like olive oil, paprika, pepper, turmeric, red pepper flakes, mace, coriander, and rose petals in a bowl, creating a harmonious blend of spices.
  • In a pot, bring lentils and 4 1/4 cups of water to a boil. Cook until lentils are tender yet firm, about 15-18 minutes. Add buckwheat groats to the pot and bring back to a boil. Season with salt and cook for an additional 10 minutes. Remove from heat, cover, and let sit until water is absorbed, approximately 5 minutes before serving.
  • Combine lentils, buckwheat, spinach, beets, carrots, and green onions in a large bowl. Pour seasoned oil over mixture and mix well to coat. Drizzle apple cider vinegar over salad and mix again to blend flavors. Chill in the refrigerator for a minimum of 30 minutes to allow the flavors to combine.
