“Colorful Salad - Two“ Star  Ingredient - Chana Dal 🧡 Lentils & Beans are a great way to make a protein rich hearty bowl, this Chana Dal Salad makes a wholesome meal in itself and I bet you’re going to love the flavors 🙃Salads aren’t tough to crack, just follow your heart and make a bowl that brings your taste buds the most comfort 🥰

The fruity crunch from apples is a must, the basic lemon juice & olive oil dressing is a forever charm and those spices bring in some tangy feels that make this bowl extremely tasty 🙃
