I fell in love with this salad at a women’s craft gathering. Even though it was made with couscous (cracked semolina wheat), I knew I could adapt it using a wheatless power grain like quinoa. In the interest of making it gluten-free and creating another way to promote millet, I played around until I got… Read more »
