I’m so disappointed! Found this salad very dry and unexciting. I should have gone with my gut and coat the veggies in oil and spices to spruce it up a bit. I substituted the wheat berries for quinoa. Seemed to do the trick.
This winter salad was very popular a large family gathering. The dressing was delicious, the colourful vegetables (yams and beets) blended in with kale (I used a package of pre-washed kale, spinach, Swiss Chard). No cutting necessary. It was served in January (when Vancouver Islanders prefer hot veggies over salad). This salad was perfect as it had winter veggies! I gave my daughter the recipe and she will make it for her next dinner party.
I don’t like beets. What is a good substitute?
This recipe sounds delicious, so I’ll try it soon. I have wheat for breadmaking in my pantry, so a wheatberry recipe is ideal for me. However, I bet bulgar, quinoa, buckwheat, or brown rice would work equally as well. Thank you.
This recipe sounds delicious! Were getting ready for a trip in our Airstream and I wondered how long this would keep in the frig?
