Refreshing and light potato salad with lemony dijon dressing, garnished with dill and homemade cashew cream. Perfect for summer BBQ's.
Serves: 4
Ingredients
- 3-4 Yellow or Rustic Potatoes (Salt + Pepper)
- 1 Bunch Asparagus
- 1 Cup Green or Brown Lentils
- Juice of ½ a lemon
- 1-2 tsp dijon mustard
- Dill to garnish
- Cashew Cream:
- 1 Cup Cashews
- ½ Cup water (+ more as needed to blend)
- ¾ Tbsp lemon juice
- ¾ Tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 F. Chop and toss potatoes with salt and pepper and bake until crispy about 35-40 minutes.
- Chop the asparagus and bake until crispy - about 20-30 minutes, this can also be done on the BBQ.
- If using fresh lentils, boil 2 cups of water, reduce to a simmer and add 1 cup of lentils. Cook with the lid on for about 15 minutes. Otherwise, drain and rinse canned lentils.
- To make the cashew cream blend all ingredients together.
- Make dressing by mixing the lemon and dijon. You can also add olive oil but I think it makes it less strong.
- Assemble the salad by tossing the potato, asparagus and lentils in the lemon dijon dressing. Garnish with dill and serve with cashew cream!
