Print This Recipe
Ingredients:
- 2 cups uncooked wheat berries (soft wheat)
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans
- 2 medium apples, cored, diced and skin on!
- 1/3 cup dark raisins, chopped
- 1 cup finely chopped parsley
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 cup apple juice
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
Directions:
Put 7 cups water into a medium pot and bring to a boil. Add wheat berries, reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for about 50 minutes, or until cooked through. The wheat berries will have a chewy texture and are firm. Drain and set aside to let cool.
Put the cooled wheat berries in a large bowl. Add the walnuts, pecans, apples, raisins, and parsley; mix well. In a small bowl add the vinegar, apple juice, salt, pepper, nutmeg, cinnamon, olive oil and lemon juice and whisk everything together.
Add the dressing to the salad, mix well and serve at room temperature.
