Steps to make Mediterranean Lentil Salad:

Let the lentils cool down for ~10 minutes. This process usually will take the lentils to a state when they aren’t too soft, as we don’t want them to turn into a paste when mixed in the salad.
2. While the lentils are cooling down, mix the rest of the main ingredients in a large bowl. Mix the dressing ingredients in a small bowl. Add the cooled down lentils to the large bowl with the main ingredients and mix well. Add the dressing from the small bowl to the large bowl.
