Although this recipe may look complicated with its long list of ingredients, it is actually very easy to throw together for lunch or dinner. If you don't have millet, use quinoa or brown rice instead. I have many different varieties of basil growing in my gardens, so today I added fresh lemon basil to brighten the flavors even more! My children love this millet salad; it is perfect for school lunches or packed in a cooler for a trip to the beach.
