A perfect on-the-go salad
Wheat berries are not really berries at all, but are the whole-grain form of wheat, much like a kernel of rice. They’re nutrition-packed because the kernel is left intact. Wheat berries impart a pleasant, chewy texture and nutty flavor and won’t turn into mush when mixed with a dressing or moist fruits or vegetables. This delicious salad is vegan-friendly, too!
