This was really good. It's flavors were strong and satisfying while still clean and refreshing. I had to substitute parsley for the cilantro, and it was good. I look forward to trying it with cilantro too. Thanks for a great recipe!

Very good recipe. My boyfriend an I really enjoyed it last night. We used large white beans in stead of garbanzo and jalano from a jar in stead of chili.

This was pretty good! I've been trying to eat more lentil's b/c they are healthy and this is a good option. I did feel almost like it was missing something, so I added brown rice.

This recipe was fantastic! I took another reviewer's advice to add feta cheese and I have to say that it added the perfect bit of tang, blending well with the spice of the dish. I served it warm over brown rice topped with a little baby spinach salad mix. Delish!

Great recipe! I used canneloni beans, didn't have any garbanzos, threw in about a cup of cooked brown rice. Was delicious, healthy and beautiful. A keeper for sure.

Husband did not like this at all--thank goodness I made only 1/2 the recipe because I've got alot to eat myself! I've added some red onion and more jalapeno peppers to the original recipe. Definitely won't be making this one again!

Letting the salad sit a few hours really helped the flavor soak in, but it still wasn't enough for me. Granted, I did have to leave out the chili pepper because I couldn't eat it, so I won't hold that against the recipe. I like that it's healthy--incorporates EVOO, has protein and lots of fiber (plus, recent studies say mediteranean food is the healthiest). If you're watching your carb intake, however, you'll want to look for another recipe or go easy on the serving.

i, like most people, changed it a little bit. i didn't have cilantro, so instead i added 1/4 tsp ground cumin and 1/8 tsp ground ginger, which added a nice twist. I served it with bulgur wheat. BULGUR WHEAT WAS A GREAT CHOICE. i think this recipe is a great starting point for everyone to add their own personal twist without fear of messing it up.

I increased the lentils to 1 cup and I also used one can of garbanzo beans. We enjoyed eating this with the scoop-shaped Tostitos chips. The olive oil/ lime dressing and the fresh cilantro make this colorful dish special.

This is my new obsession. I use black bluga lentils (pre cooked) but do everything else exactly the same. Add cooked chicken for a wonderful, filling, healthy lunch!

Flavorful, colorful and crunchy . . . and good for you! I cooked my own chick peas (garbanzo beans) starting with 1/2 cup dried. They were much more tasty than anything from a can and had no added salt or other preservatives. I also added some lime zest to the dressing and used halved grape tomatoes.

I think this recipe is good, yeah, but not as good as I expected based on the reviews. I found the lentils only took 10 mins to cook, and were mushy in the salad. Next time I will use half to a full can of lentils instead, as I find that they remain firm. I think additional items such as avocado would be nice, but that probably draws away from the ethnicity of it.

I used good bell peppers and lots of fresh-squeezed lime in this. The serrano pepper I'd bought got lost somewhere in the fridge, so I had to use canned jalepenos. This was still a wonderful dish that got better the longer it sat. (But it only sat for a day, in spite of the fact that I made a double recipe. It was very popular.) I recommend that you drain the chickpeas and lentils for awhile in a colander in the sink -- this prevented my salad from getting soggy.
