Summer Squash Garbanzo And Buckwheat Salad

Ingredients

* 2 cups uncooked buckwheat
* 4 cups water
* 1/2 tsp salt
* 4 small summer (yellow) squash, thinly sliced
* 1 can garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
* 1/2 cup chopped toasted walnuts
* 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
* 1 lemon, juiced
* 1 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley
* 2 Tbsp olive oil
* salt and black pepper to taste

Directions

1. Put the buckwheat, water, and salt in a large pot and bring it to a boil; reduce heat and cook at a slow boil for 6 to 7 minutes; drain well and put into a large salad bowl and refrigerate until just cooled down.
2. When cool, add the summer squash, garbanzo beans, walnuts, and Parmesan cheese into the bowl and toss together.
3. Add the lemon juice, parsley, olive oil, salt, and pepper and stir gently until just mixed and serve immediately.

Story

As more people find they benefit from a gluten-free diet, buckwheat is becoming more popular. Buckwheat is not a cereal grain. It is a fruit seed that is related to rhubarb. People who are sensitive to wheat or other grains that contain protein glutens are switching to buckwheat recipes for this reason.

This recipe is filling and nutritious because buckwheat is loaded with vitamins and the garbanzo beans are a great protein. You also have walnuts which offer even more nutrition. Don't let the name 'salad' fool you... this is a real full-meal deal.
