Buckwheat.
The name alone sends gluten free folks like myself running far, far away from.
However, guess what?
It is gluten free.<\/strong>
Buckwheat is an ancient grain primarily found in Eastern Europe but is now found here in health food stores and most grocery stores. It is a great source of fibre and provides complete protein as well as amino acids.
I like to replace buckwheat instead of quinoa in salads for it is a larger quick-cooking grain and holds up well in dishes.
Earlier this year Safeway<\/a> gave me a big bag of Compliments gluten free boxed products to giveaway to my readers. Included in the bag is a box of Compliments gluten free flour. Yep, the flour that I use in pretty all of my recipes now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They also gave me a bag of goodies but I decided to give mine away too.
That is 2 prizes!
Are you excited?<\/p>\n\n\n\n


This buckwheat salad is a twist on a traditional middle eastern salad but still includes many of the great flavours.

I hope you give buckwheat a try. I like to cook up some buckwheat and keep it in my fridge for whenever I need a quick addition to a salad.<\/p>\n\n\n
