| Make Ahead Layered Salad With Oil-Free Orange Ginger Dressing Just like the Whole Foods salad, but now made in the comfort of your own home. With some advance prep work, you can enjoy this salad all week long. Print this recipe Inspired by Whole Foods. Yield: four 500-ml mason jars, with a bit leftover for the salad: | |
| 1 cup | uncooked wheatberries, (makes 2 & 1/4 cup cooked) |
| 1 cup | uncooked quinoa, (makes 2.5 cups cooked) |
| 1 cup | edamame |
| 1 cup | diced carrots, (about 2) |
| 1.5 cups | diced red pepper, (1 large) |
| 1.5 cups | diced green pepper, (1 large) |
| 1/2 cup | finely chopped fresh parsley |
| Herbamare or kosher salt, to taste for the dressing (makes four 1/4 cup servings): | |
| 2/3 cup 100% | pure orange juice, (or use freshly squeezed) |
| 1/3 cup 100% | pure apple juice |
| 1 tbsp | apple cider vinegar |
| 1 tbsp | fresh minced ginger |
| 1 tbsp | fresh lime juice |
| kosher salt, to taste, (I used 1/4 tsp) | |
1. In a medium-sized pot, add quinoa and 1.5 cups water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer, until fluffy, about 15-20 minutes, watching closely so it doesn’t burn. Do the same for the wheatberries, in another pot, but add 2 cups of water and cook until tender and chewy, likely cooking for about 5 mins longer than the quinoa.
2. Meanwhile, chop the vegetables. In a bowl or jar, whisk together the dressing ingredients and set aside.
3. When the grains have cooked, grab your 500-ml mason jars (if layering), and add into each: 1/2 cup wheatberries, 1/4 cup green pepper, 1/4 cup red pepper, 1/2 cup quinoa, 1/4 cup carrots, 2 tbsp parsley, and 1/4 cup edamame per mason jar. You may have to push it down a bit. Repeat as necessary. Makes enough for 4 mason jars, with a bit leftover. Alternatively, you can just mix the salad together into a big bowl along with the dressing. Will keep in the fridge for 5-6 days.
Mark my words, this is one healthy salad that will keep you going all week long. Just don’t forget to have a piece of cookie dough fudge for dessert.
