Nutty wheat berries offer a great texture and hearty flavor to these individual salads assembled in pint jars. Save any leftover dressing in a covered jar in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Ingredients:

For the Dijon vinaigrette:

  • 1 Tbs. white wine vinegar or red wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp. finely chopped shallot
  • 1/2 tsp. Dijon mustard
  • 3 to 4 Tbs. extra-virgin olive oil
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper

  • 1 1/2 cups (8 oz./125 g) cooked and drained wheat berries
  • 1/2 cup (2 1/2 oz./75 g) shredded carrot
  • 3 Tbs. torn Thai or other fresh basil leaves, plus 2 small sprigs for garnish
  • 1 mango, diced
  • 1 avocado, diced

Directions:

To make the vinaigrette, in a jar, combine the vinegar, shallot, mustard, olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Cover and shake until well blended.

In a bowl, toss the warm wheat berries with 1 1/2 Tbs. of the vinaigrette. Let cool. Divide the carrot equally between 2 jars. Top with the wheat berries and torn basil. Layer the mango and avocado on top, garnish with basil sprigs and serve. Serves 2.
