- 1 c cooked rice
- 1/2 c bottled Italian dressing
- 1/2 c tomatoes, seeded and diced
- 1/4 c chopped green pepper
- 3 Tbls chopped onion
- 2 Tbls chopped celery
- 2 Tbls sliced pimento-stuffed green olives
- chopped parsley
Directions: Wash and drain
lentils. Place in a heavy saucepan; add water and salt. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, cover and simmer for about 20 minutes. Do not overcook; lentils should be tender with skin intact. Drain immediately. Combine with cooked rice; pour dressing over mixture and refrigerate until cook. Add remaining ingredients except parsley; mix well. Garnish with
parsley before serving. Makes about 5 servings. Note: Lentils require NO soaking.
