Spelt and Kamut Salad image

This is a very healthy grain salad. I have tried to duplicate the one I buy at the Overwaite deli. It is close but not completely there. Still this is very tasty. You do not want large servings ( apprx 1/2 cup serving) - it is very filling and intended to be served as a side dish. I like to have tomatoes and lettuce along with it or any other green salad.

I'm not sure what all the hype is about. This salad is just okay. I've had better.

This salad is way too expensive for what you get. I can make a similar salad at home for a fraction of the cost.

I didn't like the texture of the spelt and kamut. I think it's too chewy.

I found this salad to be a bit too dry. I think it would be better with a little more dressing.

This salad is a bit bland for my taste. I think it needs some more seasoning.

I added some grilled chicken to this salad and it was amazing! The smoky flavor of the chicken paired perfectly with the nutty flavor of the spelt and kamut.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover grains. I had some cooked spelt and kamut in the fridge, and this was a delicious way to use them up.
