Here is a real food salad with boiled spelt. ( From Wikipedia: “Spelt is a hexaploid species of wheat. Spelt was an important staple in parts of Europe from the Bronze Age to medieval times; it now survives as a relict crop in Central Europe and northern Spain and has found a new market as a health food.”)
You need:
2 cupes boiled and cooled spelt
1 red bell pepper, cleaned and diced
1 apple, cleaned and diced
1 cup edamame beans, stringed
2 spring onions, cleaned and diced
2-3 carrots, cleaned and diced
1/2 cup roasted pumpkin seeds
Dressing:
2 teaspoons liquid duck stock concentrate
2 spoons olive oil
1 teaspoon vinegar
1 spoon agave syrup
1 clove garlic
To make:
Mix everything and let it rest for 30 minutes – 1 hour to really soak up the dressing and let the flavours soak in and blend.
It can easily be a meal in itself or you can add some flakes of hard cheese, seared chicken breast or poached salmon.
Ta-daaah!
(You can vary this endlessly – use couscous, regular wheat or bulgur, lentils or chickpeas, add other veggies and any number of herbs… Well, then it wouldn’t be this, would it now?)
Enjoy!
