Instruction
- Start cooking the red wheat berries first because they take the longest. Follow the package directions.
- While the red wheat berries cook the couscous and quinoa according to their package directions. You can substitute vegetable broth for water when cooking but it's not necessary.
- Drain and add all of the cooked grains to a bowl.
- Add the oil, scallions, parsley, mint, cucumber, tomatoes, sea salt and pepper.
- Mix well.
- Season to taste and serve or cover and refrigerate.
- You can not freeze this salad. It is great fresh and actually improves after being kept in the refrigerator a day or two.
