Hearty Wheat Berry & Squash Salad

This recipe was absolutely delicious and packed with flavor! I swapped the wheat berries for quinoa, which worked perfectly, and air-fried the squash for a crispy, caramelized finish. It’s a hearty and satisfying dish that I’ll definitely make again.

Mmm love these ideas, Maxine! Thanks a bunch 🥰

This stole the show at Thanksgiving - it is absolutely delicious in multiple ways!

Great salad, super tasty!

I'm excited to make this for the first time for next week! However, I would like to add some protein as we would have it as a main. My parents not being a fan of soy products (omnivore) I was thinking some brown lentils would be great, but would like to have your opinion on it 😊

Hey Dora, brown lentils are a lovely idea! You could also try adding chickpeas, toasted nuts, or even quinoa for extra protein and variety. Just be sure to cook them separately and mix them in 🤗

Delicious! Your recipes never fail me 🥰

Made it for thanksgiving and it went over great. Everyone loved it! Very hearty. I definitely am making it more often it’s so good

Loved it!!

Perfect salad! Kabocha is my favourite squash. 🤍 In this recipe, I didn’t peel the squash and it turned out extra crunchy. I also swapped for quinoa instead of wheat.
PS: 100g of quinoa is enough for 4 servings.

Yay! Thanks for sharing your experience with the recipes, Franciele, quinoa sounds lovely 😊

Delicious ! Kabocha squash took me very long to cut and prepare - any tricks ? Took me 2h instead of 45 min but honestly very good and the squash was special - will do it again! 🙌🏼☀️

I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the recipe, Lorena! A sharp knife is probably what helps more than anything. Second to that would be finding ways to remove or soften the skin. You could either try peeling the skin with a Y-peeler, or one trick is to microwave it for a minute or two to soften the skin slightly before cutting, which can make the process easier and faster 🤗

Delicious dressing and a hearty salad. Made it with delicata squash and it was still great :)
