🥛Milk🌾WheatSwaps and substitutions
For a wheat-free version, swap the wheat berries for cooked quinoa, farro-style gluten-free grains, or brown rice. To avoid dairy, leave out the fresh mozzarella or use a plant-based mozzarella; if needed, capers can be rinsed for lower salt.
What to serve with it
Serve with crusty whole-grain bread or a simple vegetable soup to make the meal more filling. A chilled white wine or sparkling water with lemon works well with the bright, savory flavors.
