Here is the recipe that Kari mentioned in this weeks YouTube video.

Whole grains are an excellent source of nutrients like fiber, protein, iron, B vitamins and magnesium. They keep us feeling full, keep blood sugar levels regulated and provide us with sustained energy. If you are interested in increasing whole grains in your diet, here is one of my favorite whole grain salad recipes. Enjoy!
