Ingredients | Gluten Free Bean Salad

1 cup water

½ cup buckwheat groats

1 small avocado - peeled, pitted, and diced

5 cherry tomatoes, diced

1 lime, juiced

2 tablespoons thinly sliced red onion

1 ½ tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

½ teaspoon fennel seed

½ teaspoon cayenne pepper

¼ teaspoon freshly ground mixed peppercorns

¼ cup soft goat cheese, crumbled

Directions

Combine water and buckwheat in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover the saucepan, and simmer until the buckwheat is firm yet tender to the bite, about 8 minutes. Rinse buckwheat under cold water and drain.

Stir avocado, cherry tomatoes, lime juice, red onion, olive oil, parsley, fennel seed, cayenne pepper, and mixed pepper together in a large bowl until evenly combined. Add buckwheat groats and stir gently; top with goat cheese.

You can substitute any mild crumbly cheese for the goat cheese. Letting the salad sit for a while will help the flavors mix and settle, creating a more flavorful treat.
