Wheat Berries with Roasted Beets and Sage

Azul Flores

Wheat berries are unprocessed whole kernels of wheat. When cooked, they maintain their berry shape and have a chewy texture that plays nicely off cubed roasted beets in this salad. Save the beet greens for Farfalle with Sautéed Greens, Lemon, and Pecorino Romano Cheese

This is colorful and pretty. You can prepare the two main components-the wheat berries and beets- in advance, making this easy to put together. If you are looking to add to your list of healthier salads, this is a good place to start.
