"Ellie Krieger's recipe from Food Network. It's the closest I can find to the wheatberry salad I've had from the deli at Whole Foods, which is to die for! This has tons of 5 star reviews on FN's website. Posting for safekeeping!"

I am a married cruise-only travel agent with two stepsons, aged 20 and 25. It took a while to get the boys used to my cooking, as they were raised on fast food and pre-packaged foods (i.e. mac-n-cheese from the blue box, frozen dinners, Chef Boyardee, McDonalds, etc.). My mother is from Spain and I lived there as well as Germany, England and Italy growing up, which influenced both my career and my cuisine!</p>
