Lemony Dill Freekeh Salad
Yummy Freekeh – like the bulgar wheat salads of my childhood, Karshia Varnishkies & Tabouli, my Freekeh Salad does best when served with tangy wet salads to absorb some of their goodness. I usually have my Tzatziki on hand (find the recipe in the Fill Yer Fridge section on my website) & lately have been serving Israeli Salad with my Freekeh. This recipe, like many others, is open to your substitutions – try diced Zucchini, Red Onion, or Radish for super additions!
