A perfect way to have both your grains and greens in a tasty salad – a great side dish or a meal.

2 Tbsp  Highwood Crossing Organic Canola Oil
1  onion, finely chopped
4  cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1  carrot, cut into ¼ inch dice
1 cup  Highwood Crossing Organic Power Grain Cereal
1 cup  chicken or vegetable stock
1/2 tsp  coarse salt
6 ounces  kale, spinach, or chard; stemmed and cut into ½ inch wide strips
pinch  freshly ground pepper
pinch  crushed red-pepper flakes
1/4 cup  shaved parmesan cheese
1  lemon, cut in wedges for serving

Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and 2 cloves of garlic. Cook, stirring, until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in carrots and Highwood Crossing Organic Power Grains; cook 1 minute. Add stock, 1 cup of water, and the salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, covered for 25 minutes.

Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in a medium skillet and over medium heat. Add remaining garlic; cook until garlic begins to turn golden, about 30 seconds. Stir in kale, spinach, or chard; cook, stirring, until wilted, about 3 minutes.

Stir kale, spinach or chard mixture into Highwood Crossing Power Grains mixture. Cover, cook until liquid is completely absorbed, and grains are tender but still chewy, about 5 minutes. Season the salad with pepper and crushed red-pepper flakes. Garnish with cheese and serve with lemon wedges.
