Ok, I finally made this, and its just delicious. Wheatberries are such a great addition, I have been eating beet and goat chees salads for what feels like ages but this recipe made it feel substantial, like something you want to share. Thanks so much.

I made this beautiful & tasty salad last weekend during my Moms Retreat. Imagine six moms (sans husbands & kids) in a sweet rented cottage in Sonoma – relaxed, sipping bubbly & eating this wonderful salad on a sunny day. Perfect! We all thank you.

Hey, Tim! I did a nice riff on your salad this weekend, with black beluga lentils standing in for the wheat berries, and served it in savoy cabbage leaf bowls. It was terrific! Thanks for the inspiration. I’ll be blogging abut it later in the week, and as always, will link back to you.
Have a good week!

Made it. loved it! I’m about to eat leftovers now. I think the dressing and interplay with the feta was my favorite part.

Yum yum Tim! I just started seeds to grow beets. When they are ready… will you come over and make beet concoctions with me? A Beet Off?!?

Great salad! I love beats and wheat “berries” – both products a bit forgotten, unfortunately.

Pretty, pretty, pretty. Some smoked chicken would be a fantastic addition, as long as we’re dreaming! Thanks, Tim, for the inspiration.

This salad looks fantastic! The wheatberries are a great component–I bet they add general heartiness. Hmmm…must try this…

I love wheatberries! And your orange vinagrette looks lovely. This salad is the perfect weekday lunch to take to work! Thanks for the yummy idea.

oh, yeah, good stuff this!! we pull this one out year-round, since beets travel and store well. we eat it with lentils, the little green de puy french ones. and it’s pretty groovy for lunch the next day, also.

Simple ingredients often come together to make the best dish – love the idea of adding grain to this salad.

I am really happy when I get recipes for salads. When I am making a salad, I tend to go over and over for the same dressings and ingredients, and reading a new recipe is always a fresh and sometimes surprising start, even if I always end up doing some adjustments. This combination sounds really interesting: I am always looking forward for new ways of using beetroots, one vegetable which I don’t like enough to eat on its own, but which I do enjoy in combinations.
