Hearty Wheat Berry & Squash Salad

This salad is absolutely delicious! It‘s very easy to do but looks and tastes very elaborate. I‘ll keep it in mind for when I‘m cooking for guests.
In Germany I bought Ebly wheat, which cooks in only 10min.
For me, the recipe made 2 servings as a main dish.

Honestly, this dish is one of my favourites! It's sooo incredibly delicious. The dressing, pumpkin in a spice rub, and all other goodies. The instruction about time and temperature is on point. I swap for black rice. Made it already three times and many more to come. Thank you <3

Hab's mit Quinoa gemacht, einfach nur lecker

This recipe is my new favorite salad for fall.
Most of the ingredients can be locally sourced. For example, I used Franconian green spelt, Hokkaido pumpkin and lamb's lettuce.

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.

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.

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 :)
