millet greens salad

 I took the idea from here, and it would be good with asparagus and basil but I didn't feel like shopping so plan to use what I have on hand and I'll eat it with sardines.  

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup millet
  • 1 1/2 cup vegetable broth 
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup sherry or red wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup minced onion
  • pepper, salt
  • 4 cups baby arugula 
  • 1 cup dried cherries
  • 1/2 cup herbs (using mint today; basil would be good as in recipe) 
  • other vegetables such as roasted asparagus 
  • pepitas or other nuts/seeds

 Directions

Cook the millet - rinse well, then toast for a few minutes in a dry skillet, then add to heated broth and cook for 20 minutes.  Fluff, let rest off heat for 10 minutes, let cool. 

Make dressing: whisk together oil, vinegar, mustard, salt & pepper in a large bowl.  Add in onion.  Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well.
