Black Lentil Bowl
A healthy, nourishing, and truly delicious dish—cook up some black lentils! Black lentils aren't exactly a budget ingredient, but we try to work them into our meals often because they're so good for you. And beyond the health benefits, they taste wonderful. Here I'm making them as a simple lentil bowl, which is delicious on its own, dressed with just a little butter or olive oil. But we love a more refined version—let me introduce you to it...

- Black lentils don't need soaking, so just rinse them and boil them in salted water—they cook in about 20 minutes. Drain the cooked lentils in a sieve. 2. While the lentils cook, lightly toast the coarsely chopped walnuts in a dry skillet. 3. Peel the onion and cut it into thin half-moons. 4. Make the dressing by whisking together all the sauce ingredients (except the dill). 5. Combine the cooked lentils, walnuts, and onion. 6. Toss with the dressing and divide among serving plates, garnishing with dill. To your health!
