I recently posted a recipe for roast lamb. As delicious as that dish is, it is possible, though not likely, that you may have some lamb left.  Here’s one idea for how to transform the leftover lamb into an entirely new, and healthy, dish.

Mediterranean Lamb salad

3-4 oz cooked lamb

2 apricots, cut into segments

1 can chick peas, drained and rinsed

2 Tblsp pine nuts

5 olives, quartered

A few sprigs of mint

Cut lamb into cubes.  Put in bowl.  Add apricots and chick peas.  Dress with yogurt dressing. Sprinkle olives and pinenuts on top. Garnish with mint.

Dressing

½ cup plain yogurt

¼ cup loosely packed mint leaves

1 lemon

Salt

Place yogurt in a bowl.  Stir in mint leaves.  Sqeeze lemon juice.  Stir.  Add salt.

Dress Mediterranean lamb salad.
