This lentil salad with feta and roasted peppers is hearty, colourful and full of Mediterranean flavour. Sturdy lentils, creamy crumbled feta and sweet roasted peppers are brought together with peppery rocket and a fresh dressing of olive oil and red wine vinegar.

In Phase 2 you can thoughtfully introduce more carbohydrates, and lentils are ideal for this. They provide plant-based protein and slow carbohydrates that give energy gradually, whilst the feta adds extra protein and a creamy fullness. This way your protein diet stays balanced and nourishing, with a filling feeling that carries you calmly through the afternoon.

Lovely with a spoonful of Greek yoghurt or a few olives for an extra Mediterranean touch. Some roasted wholemeal bread alongside makes this protein-rich salad a complete lunch.

Variatietips

Swap the feta for crumbled goat's cheese or halloumi chunks. A handful of pomegranate seeds or toasted pumpkin seeds add extra sweetness and crunch.
