Veggie Bowl
Servings: 4 Soak Overnight Prep 15 mins Cook 40 mins

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups Kamut (khorasan wheat) berries (such as Bob's Red Mill)
  • 1/2 pound broccoli crowns, cut into bite-size pieces
  • 1 cup shelled edamame
  • 1/2 cup light mayonnaise
  • 1/3 cup 2% Greek yogurt (such as Fage)
  • 1/4 tablespoon parsley, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons chopped dill
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon snipped chives
  • 2 teaspoons country Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon garlic
  • 1 6 ounce bag baby spinach
  • 1/2 cup crunchy sprouts (pea, adzukl and lentil blend; optional)

Make It

1. Combine Kamut berries and 4 cups water in a bowl. Soak overnight.

2. Drain Kamut and transfer to a large shallow pot. Add 4 1/2 cups lightly salted water and bring to a boil over high heat. Cover and reduce heat to medium. Simmer 35 minutes.

3. Add broccoli and edamame to pot with Kamut. Cover and cook 5 minutes. Drain and rinse with cool water.

4. Meanwhile, whisk together mayonnaise, yogurt, parsley, dill, lemon juice, olive oil, chives, mustard, sugar and 1/2 tsp of the garlic salt.

5. In a large bowl, combine spinach, Kamut mixture, 3/4 cup of the dressing and the sprouts, if desired. Gently toss. Season with remaining 1/2 tsp garlic salt and toss again. Refrigerate any leftover dressing for another use.

Tip

Store-Bought Swap
  • Use a light ranch or creamy Caeser.
Grain Check
  • Kamut -- available in health food stores -- has a chewy, nutty texture. Brown rice or red wheat berries can be used instead.
