Mediterranean Millet cous Cous

• 6 cups water
• 2 cups millet, dry
• 12 cup chia seeds (optional)
• 2 large zucchini, diced
• 1 large cucumber, diced
• 10 cherry tomatoes, halved
• 12 cup dried apricot, chopped
• 12 cup dried cranberries, chopped
• 1 large sweet onion, diced
• 1 -2 cup basil, finely chopped
• 1 cup of fresh mint, finely chopped
• 1 12 teaspoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 12 teaspoon black pepper
• 12 cup fresh lemon juice

1. Soak millet overnight, rinse well before using!
2. In a saucepan over high heat, bring water to boil and add in millet.
3. Simmer 15-20mins.
4. Strain and let cool in large bowl.
5. Combine the rest of the ingredients and mix well.
6. Season with more lemon juice, salt, pepper, or cayenne pepper to taste.
7. Stir in millet, mixture can be served warm or cold.
8. Serve over mixed greens and garnish with avocado slices for dinner.
9. Or for lunch, add 1/2 an avocado on top.
10. Keeps well in fridge -- I usually make a big batch, and use later during the week for lettuce wraps for lunch, or a quick dinner back up!
11. Kids like the "sushi" that I make using this mixture and carrot sticks.
