Method

  1. Prepare kamut or ancient grain according to package directions. Allow to cool. Preheat oven to a low broil. Place salmon on a baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and black pepper. Place under the broiler and cook 5-7 minutes, until salmon flakes easily with a fork. Remove from the oven and allow to cool. To assemble bowls, spoon kamut or other ancient grain into 4 bowls. Place salmon, mozzarella slices and chunks of feta on top of the kamut. Arrange cherry tomatoes, cucumber, avocado, Kalamata olives and red onion on top of cheeses. In a small bowl, whisk together remaining 3 tablespoons of olive oil, zest and juice of lemon and a pinch of salt and black pepper. Drizzle dressing over each bowl and top with fresh basil leaves and a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes and oregano, and an additional pinch of salt and black pepper.
