LENTIL, TUNA & TOMATO SALAD

This is another salad from the 5:2 Fast Diet and very low on calories. Only 218 calories. It is delicious and I can eat it any time regardless if I am dieting or not.  INGREDIENTS 400g can brown lentils, rinsed and drained 185g can tuna, drained and flaked 1 Lebanese cucumber, chopped coarsely 2 small tomatoes, chopped coarsely 2 green onions, sliced thinly 1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh Italian parsley 1 clove garlic, crushed 2 Tbsp lemon juice 1/4 cup drained cornichons, halved METHOD: Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl.  If you are taking this salad to work, divide it into 2 lunch boxes without the dressing. Pour the dressing, the lemon juice and the garlic, into two small jars and drizzle on top of the salad just before eating it. I like to get it out of the fridge 15-20 minutes before to be able to eat it at room temperature. Serves 2
