LENTIL SALAD WITH WATERMELON, FETA AND HEINZ ZESTY LEMON DRESSING

1.
In a frying pan, dry fry the pumpkin seeds until slightly brown and aromatic, then leave to cool.
2.
Combine the watermelon, peeled cucumber slices, pre-cooked beluga lentils, red onion and olives into a large bowl.
3.
Season to taste with a couple of sprays of Heinz Zesty Lemon Salad Dressing Spray, then mix the salad well to distribute the dressing.

Variation tip - Would you like to add some meat? Add some smoked chicken to the dish. It gives some extra flavour and goes well with the feta cheese. Add 100 grams of smoked chicken and divide over the salad. Or why not try some fish? Go for 100g of smoked mackerel. Tear the fish apart with your hands. Remove any bones, then divide over the salad.
