Chewier in texture and nuttier in flavor than most grains, wheat berries are a nutritional mother lode. Consisting of the bran, germ, and endosperm of the wheat kernel, wheat berries contain protein, fiber, and B6 vitamins, making it a grain powerhouse. This zippy salad is excellent as a standalone meal or served as a side dish. Also, feel free to garnish with snipped chives to take this dish up a notch and impress your guests.
