Directions

Prep 5 minCook 20 min
  1. 1

    Rinse the lentils under cool water in a fine-mesh sieve, removing any debris.

  2. 2

    Bring a pot of water to a boil, add the lentils, return to a gentle boil, then cover and cook until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain well and spread on a tray for 5–10 minutes to steam-dry and cool slightly.

  3. 3

    While the lentils cook, dice the pears. In a large bowl, combine the warm (not hot) lentils with pears, hazelnuts, feta, and arugula.

  4. 4

    Drizzle with the balsamic vinaigrette and toss gently to coat. Taste and adjust to preference, then serve.
