Ingredients
-
1 cup water
-
½ cup buckwheat groats
-
1 small avocado - peeled, pitted, and diced
-
5 cherry tomatoes, diced
-
1 lime, juiced
-
2 tablespoons thinly sliced red onion
-
1 ½ tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
-
1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
-
½ teaspoon fennel seed
-
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
-
¼ teaspoon freshly ground mixed peppercorns
-
¼ cup soft goat cheese, crumbled
Directions
-
Combine water and buckwheat in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover the saucepan, and simmer until the buckwheat is firm yet tender to the bite, about 8 minutes. Rinse buckwheat under cold water and drain.
-
Stir avocado, cherry tomatoes, lime juice, red onion, olive oil, parsley, fennel seed, cayenne pepper, and mixed pepper together in a large bowl until evenly combined. Add buckwheat groats and stir gently; top with goat cheese.
Cook's Note:
You can substitute any mild crumbly cheese for the goat cheese. Letting the salad sit for a while will help the flavors mix and settle, creating a more flavorful treat.
