\n 2 celery ribs, diced
\n 1 Granny Smith apple, cored and cubed<\/p>\n
Dressing
\n 1\/2 cup light mayonnaise
\n 1\/3 cup sour cream (or plain yogurt)
\n 2 tablespoons red wine or rice vinegar
\n 3 tablespoons apple juice
\n salt and pepper to taste<\/p>\n
Preparation
\n 1. Bring 3 cups of water to a boil, then stir in the wheatberries and 1\/2 teaspoon salt. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook the wheatberries, uncovered, for 1 1\/4 -1 1\/2 hours until tender and chewy. Drain the wheatberries in a colander and cool. Wheatberries can be cooked and stored in the refrigerator for up to three days to reduce your preparation time to 30 minutes.
