1/3 cup fresh squeezed lemon juice

2 large garlic cloves -- minced

2 tablespoons olive oil (could probably be reduced or

1 TB. curry powder

1/2 tsp. salt

1 tsp. cumin

1 tsp. ginger

1/2 tsp. chili powder (mild)

1 TB. Dijon mustard

1 cup cooked wheatberries (directions follow)

1 cup cooked brown rice

1 cup garbanzo beans -- rinsed and drained

1 cup fresh green beans -- steamed until

crisp-tender

1 cucumber -- peeled, seeded and

chopped

4 green onions -- chopped (4 to 5)

1 red pepper -- seeded and sliced

1 Granny Smith apple -- chopped

4 TB. cilantro or parsley -- chopped

set aside. Combine rice, wheatberries, garbanzo beans, onion, green beans,

cucumber, pepper, apple and cilantro in another bowl; mix with dressing.

 

The creator of this salad says that it's best to mix it together and let

it sit in the refrigerator at least overnight, to let the flavors mix and

meld. to cook wheatberries: they should be soaked for at least half an

hour before cooking them. To cook, cover them with water in a saucepan,

bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer gently for 30 minutes. If you

don't care for wheatberries, you can substitute fresh corn off the cob

instead.
