- 1 cup hard red winter wheat berries
- ¾ cup walnuts chopped, toasted optional
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 cup dried cherries
- 2-3 green onions sliced
Dressing
- ¼ cup balsamic vinegar high-quality
- 3 Tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 2 Tablespoons shallot finely chopped
- 2-3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 3 - 3 ½ Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- ¼ teaspoon salt fine sea salt
- black pepper to taste, freshly ground
Instructions
- Cook wheat berries according to package directions; they will simmer for approximately 50 minutes until cooked through to a chewy, but not hard, texture.
- Optional: toast walnuts in a small skillet over low-medium heat until fragrant and warm, being careful not to burn. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Meanwhile, mix together the dressing by whisking together balsamic vinegar, maple syrup, shallot, garlic, and dijon mustard. Slowly whisk in olive oil until emulsified. Add salt and pepper, to taste.
- Once wheat berries are cooked, drain and mix with broccoli, dried cherries, walnuts, and green onions. Toss with dressing until coated. Serve immediately or store in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
