Lentil Salad with Kale, Herbs and Pickled Beet Vinaigrette

This is that perfect detox dish - lentils and kale are that perfect combo when I am looking to just keep it healthy and fresh.  It's completely satisfying, full of healthy greens, fiber filled lentils and the pickled beet vinaigrette adds a punch of flavor.  There is no lack of deliciousness in this dish and you get all the good stuff without any sacrifice.  We use our Indian Spiced Pickled Beet Relish to make a vinaigrette for this salad - we simply add a bit of the Indian Spiced Pickled Beet Relish to a bit of olive oil and red wine vinegar and simply mix into the salad.  We finish it with a squeeze of fresh lemon and there you have it.
