Summer Harvest Kasha Salad
Rating (0 Rated)
Kasha (a toasted, buckwheat groat that is naturally gluten-free) works great in any sort of salad that you’d usually prepare with pasta or couscous and adds a deeply earthy, nutty flavor that complements the bright, fresh veggies and herbs. Hearty enough to make a meal and so versatile, you can use whatever veggies and herbs are in season in your garden, local farmers market or co-op. The salad can also be served warm using marinated and grilled eggplant, zucchini and portobello mushrooms.
serves 6-8

Ingredients

2 cups water

1 cup kasha

1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered

1/2 cup zucchini, cut into rounds and quartered
