This multigrain mix is both stunning and delicious! The varying textures, flavors, and colors keep every bite exciting. It took a while experimenting with different grains and proportions, but I love the combination below and it’s become a staple in our pantry. The hearty, nutty flavor is really versatile so I use the cooked grains in all kids of dishes like grain bowls, stir fry, stews, fried “rice,” or even just plain with a little sesame oil and chopped scallions on top.

I decided to make a quinoa dish with them instead this week. I wanted to keep the lovely roasted flavors as the highlight, so I complimented this dish with a light lemon dressing just to brighten it up a bit. I didn’t have any arugula or baby spinach, but I imagine it would taste great in this dish. I’d add it to Step 6- right when the quinoa is done- using the residual heat to wilt the greens.
