This Lemon Balsamic Lentil Salad recipe post is sponsored by Rubbermaid BRILLIANCE Lunch, but my love for their amazing storage containers is completely my own!

Savory, crunchy, refreshing, and LOADED with nutrition. This is the BEST Lemon Balsamic Lentil Salad ever! And my absolute go-to right now. I’ve been eating it for lunch lately (with a hard boiled egg and some chicken for added protein), but it can easily be kept vegan. It’s also great as a work lunch or on-the-go!

Ok, so I need to get real about something. If you’ve spent any length of time here on Jar Of Lemons, you likely already know this from reading the Golden Beet Pecan Detox Salad and Sun-Dried Tomato & Arugula Lentil Salad posts. But if you’re new to this community, I have a confession that may (or may not) shock you: I am not a salad person. No, wait, let’s try that again. I nearly loathe salads.

Wait, what?

Yeah….I know. It’s kind of embarrassing that I, the “healthy eating blogger girl”, actually only wants to live off of pizza, hamburgers, and donuts. BUT, real life reminds me that living off of those things just isn’t going to cut it on a daily basis, and salads are a great way to load up on nutrition! And when I say that I nearly loathe salads, I mean boring salads with preservative-filled dressings. Ya know?

All that to say this: When I post a salad recipe on here, it’s….well….kind of a big deal 😉

And THAT, my friend, is how you know that this Lemon Balsamic Lentil Salad is truly the BEST of it’s kind!

I’m also really digging this not-boring-salad-on-the-go situation right now. Even though I mostly work from home right now, there are days where I know I’ll be out all day and need a healthy option that’s ready to go.
