Lentil Bruschetta offers a delightful combination of flavors with simple ingredients like green lentils and feta. Perfect for a quick dinner or a healthy snack!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cup (1 can) cooked green lentils, drained
- ¼ cup crumbled feta
- 3 tablespoons chopped parsley
- 2 tablespoons chopped onion
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
- ½ tablespoon lemon juice
- ¼ teaspoon salt, or to taste
- ⅛ teaspoon pepper, or to taste
- 6 slices of bread (ciabatta or artisanal bread)
Instructions
- In a bowl, smash half of the lentils using a fork or spoon, then mix in the remaining ingredients for the dip and adjust seasoning to taste.

Customize toppings with your favorite herbs or spices for extra zest.
Serve immediately for the best texture, but can be enjoyed later.
