Triple Grain Salad

Triple Grain Salad

A refreshing way to add more whole grains to your diet this summer. If you’re gluten sensitive, eliminate the bulgur and increase the millet and quinoa by 1/4 cup each.

Equipment:

Medium Sauce Pan
Chopping Board
Large Bowl

Ingredients:

3 cups water
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/4 cup millet
1/2 cup quinoa, rinsed
1/2 cup bulgur
1 cup tomatoes, chopped
1/2 cup celery, chopped
1/3 cup black olives, chopped (my favorite: Lindsay Naturals)
1/4 cup red onion, chopped
3 Tbsp fresh basil, snipped
3 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 Tbsp olive oil

Directions:

  1. In a medium saucepan bring water and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt to a boil.  Add millet; reduce heat.  Simmer, covered for 5 minutes.
  2. Add quinoa and bulgur.  Return to boiling; reduce heat.  Simmer, covered, for 20 minutes more or until water is absorbed.  Remove from heat.  Fluff grains with a fork; let stand for 30 minutes. \
  3. Meanwhile, in a large bowl combine tomatoes, celery, olives, red onion, basil, lemon juice, olive oil and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon sea salt.  Stir in the grains mixture until just combined.
  4. Serve at room temperature or chilled.
