Cook the lentils in approximately 1 liter of water with chicken stock powder. Note: Some lentils need to be soaked overnight. Then drain the water through a sieve. Clean and finely dice the bell pepper. Clean the spring onions and slice them into thin rings. Chop the mint, if desired. Then mix everything with the lentils. Cut the feta cheese into slightly larger cubes (otherwise it will easily fall apart) and carefully fold it into the salad. Then, for the dressing, combine the lime juice, olive oil, and honey, add it to the salad, and gently fold it in again. Season with salt and pepper. Can be eaten as a full meal with some herb baguette or as a side dish for a barbecue.
