Buckwheat Chickpea Pesto Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Bring 1 cup water to a boil in a saucepan. Add buckwheat; stir once. Reduce heat and simmer until buckwheat is tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes.
• Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add asparagus, cover, and steam until tender, 2 to 6 minutes. Remove from steamer; cut into 1/2-inch pieces.
• Combine asparagus and pesto in a bowl; mix until coated. Add buckwheat; toss to combine. Top with Parmesan cheese.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a small bowl.
• Mix thoroughly. Serve.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Bring the water to boil in a medium saucepan. Add the salt and rinsed buckwheat groats. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until the groats have almost tripled in size, about 12 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit, covered, for 5 minutes.
• Lightly pound mint leaves, basil leaves, and raw cashews with a pestle in a mortar until they begin to release their own oils. Churn the pestle to create a chunky paste. Add a bit of oil if necessary. The texture should be chunky, not too smooth.
• Fluff the groats with a fork. Drain off any excess water. Transfer the buckwheat to a large salad bowl. Add the chickpeas and drizzle with a bit of oil, mixing well. Add pesto and mix well, drizzling more oil if necessary. Add the chiles and coriander. Mix well. Serve warm or cold. Best served with ice-cold milk.
