Breaking with tradition, think of this as a guise of tabbouleh salad with staying power, thanks to the addition of hearty sorghum and fiber-rich navy beans. It also ages fairly well, so it serves as a make-ahead meal that can keep for up to 3 days. A perfect plant-based option for weekday lunches.
Sorghum Tabbouleh with Kale and Navy Beans
Instructions
- In saucepan, place sorghum and enough water to cover it by 2 inches. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to maintain a simmer, and cook, covered, until grains are tender, about 40 minutes. Drain well and spread out on a baking sheet to cool to room temperature.
- In large bowl, toss together cooked and cooled sorghum, navy beans, tomatoes, kale, parsley, raisins, and pistachios.
- In small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, olive oil, and salt. Toss lemon dressing with sorghum mixture.
