     Have you ever added Grains to your Salads!?  Did you know there are no rules when it comes to Salads!?  Anything you throw in a bowl and toss around can be labeled a Salad, ...so why not try throwing in a little Farro, Barley, Quinoa, Buckwheat or Rice.  So much fun to see how many colors, flavors and textures you can combine in each and every bite.  It is a taste sensation that hits all the high notes!
