Directions
Cook the Multi-Grain Medley using broth instead of water, following the package instructions. Once it’s cooked, let it cool down completely. While that’s happening, whisk together some olive oil, fresh lemon juice, minced shallots, and a bit of mustard in a large bowl. When the grain mixture is ready, gently fold it into the dressing along with the chopped veggies and herbs. Give everything a good toss and season with salt and pepper to your taste. If you like, sprinkle some crumbled feta on top before serving for an extra burst of flavor.
How To Present This Dish
Serve this salad chilled as a refreshing side dish alongside grilled meats or seafood. It also works well as a light lunch on its own or as part of a mezze platter with hummus and pita bread.
Leftover Tips
Store the salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days. The flavors will develop more over time, but fresh herbs are best enjoyed within the first day for optimal taste and texture.
