Grain Salad

[Macfrommichigan]

Lunched yesterday at a trendy place, horrid acoustics, too much chrome and glass. OTOH, really enjoyed a grain salad. Small beans, whole grains, cherry tomatoes, a few greens, and a lemon vinaigrette. And found myself thinking, "I should make this at home."

Grain of the day: Farro. Perfect in grain salads.

Sure! I have on hand beans, grape tomatoes, a red onion, barley, lentils, lemon juice, EVOO, parsley. Just need a handful of greens....

I've seen those, and some of them are very good! I've always enjoyed a classic tabouli and takes on that.

Recently, I had this fantastic "roasted veggie bowl" that was a bunch of roasted veggies over a bed of quinoa and dressed with a vinaigrette. I added half an avocado to that. I could probably eat that every day (except I don't live in Denver).
