Seven Grain Salad

1 cup each of the following grains, cooked or you may substitute any of your favorite grains:

Note: You will want to end up with approximately 7 cups total of cooked grains

Quinoa

Wheatberries

Wild rice

White rice

Bulgur

Barley

Couscous

 

Cook grains according to the directions on the package. I recommend cooking them the night before since this takes time and several pots.

 

1/2 red pepper, diced

1/2 orange pepper, diced

1/2 yellow pepper, diced

1 small red onion, diced

1/2 bunch scallions, diced

 

Mix together and set aside.

 

Dressing:

1/2 cup mango chutney

1/4 cup prepared plum sauce

1/2 cup orange juice

1/4 cup sesame oil

1 teaspoon roughly chopped, fresh ginger (Use a heavy hand!!!)

1 teaspoon fresh garlic, chopped

 

Blend all of the ingredients in a food processor. Add salt (approx. 1/4 teaspoon) and pepper to taste. Mix the grains, dressing and chopped vegetables. Garnish with some extra chopped scallions.
