Wheat Berry Salad With Cranberries image

Ellie Krieger's recipe from Food Network. It's the closest I can find to the wheatberry salad I've had from the deli at Whole Foods, which is to die for! This has tons of 5 star reviews on FN's website. Posting for safekeeping!

Yield 6 , 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 cups wheat berries
3/4 cup walnuts or 3/4 cup pecans, chopped
2 stalks celery, finely chopped

1 scallion, chopped (white and green parts)
1/2 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped

This salad is a bit bland. I would add some more spices or herbs to give it more flavor.

The dressing for this salad is amazing! It's tangy and sweet, with a hint of spice from the Dijon mustard.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover wheat berries. I had some leftover from making wheat berry soup and this salad was the perfect way to use them up.

This wheat berry salad was a delightful blend of flavors and textures. The wheat berries had a nutty flavor that complemented the tartness of the cranberries and the sweetness of the dressing.
