bean and millet salad
simple. fast. healthy. adapted very slightly from here.
what ya need:
1 c millet
3 c water
all of the following, chopped: tomato, red bell pepper, onion. cucumber if you want.
1-2 cloves garlic, minced or crushed
balsamic vinegar
lemon/lime juice
cumin
chili pepper/cayenne
salt & pepper
1-2 cans kidney beans or black beans
how ya do it:
-cook the millet - i did it somewhat haphazardly - let it come to a boil, then turned down heat, cooked covered.
-while the millet's cooking - mix together rest of the ingredients. add the millet once it's ready. if you're a purist you probably want to make the dressing (vinegar, lime/lemon, spices) separately and pour it over the millet, beans and vegetables.
-let cool & refrigerate. or just eat. serving options: on its own, in a pita (wrap), on a lettuce leaf...
