- 2 cups soaked cracked wheat measure AFTER soaking
- 2 cups cooked wheat berries measure AFTER cooking
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice about 1 large lemon
- salt and freshly cracked black pepper

Instructions
- You will need 2 cups soaked cracked wheat and 2 cups cooked wheat berries. Follow the directions on the packages. Once soaked and cooked, measure out 2 cups each and put in a large bowl.
- Mix the dressing by whisking the olive oil and lemon juice together. Pour it over the wheat and toss to combine well. Season with 1/2 tsp salt and lots of fresh cracked black pepper. Toss again.
- Add the minced parsley, mint, cucumber, and red onion, toss well. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour.
- Toss the salad again, and taste to adjust any of the seasonings. When you are ready to serve, top with the 'jewels'. Garnish with a few mint or parsley leaves.
