Instructions
Salad
- 1 cup millet
- 1/2 cup quinoa
- 3 cup water
- 1 cups fresh spinach, chopped
- 1 mango, cubed
- 1/2 cup slivered almonds
- 1/2 cup unsweetened dried cranberries
- 1/4 cup yellow onions, diced
Lemon poppy seed dressing
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 1.5 tablespoon raw unpasteurized honey – see note
- 2 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon poppyseeds
- 1/4 teaspoon herbamare
Directions
- Place millet and quinoa in a strainer and rinse in cold water for a couple of seconds. Place rinsed grains in a medium sized saucepan and combine with water. Cover and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to simmer and allow to cook for 10-15 minutes, or until water has absorbed. Remove from heat and allow to sit with the lid on for 10 minutes before removing and allowing to cool.
- Meanwhile, combine remaining salad ingredients in a large bowl. Add lukewarm or chilled grains. Stir to combine.
- In a small bowl, mix together lemon poppy seed dressing ingredients before pouring over the salad. Serve at room temperature or cold.
