This dish bursts with flavor from exotic spices and texture from chewy wheat berries, fresh winter fruits, and roasted vegetables. It's packed with skin loving nutrients to support a healthy glow, but most importantly, it's crave-worthy and delicious. It gets better over time, so make a big batch and enjoy it all week long.
