Method

Step 1
Make Lemon dressing: Place oil, lemon juice and pepper in a screw-top jar. Secure lid. Shake to combine.

Step 2
Heat half the oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Add half the haloumi. Cook, turning, for 1 to 2 minutes or until golden. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with remaining oil and haloumi.

Step 3
Place lentils, tomato, parsley, celery and haloumi in a bowl. Add dressing. Toss to combine. Serve.

Notes

Super saver: Use 1 cup pitted kalamata olives instead of the haloumi and save around $4.97 in total. Serve with lamb cutlets or beef sausages.
