Lemon Millet w/ Chickpeas & Dill – A bright and vibrant one pot dish that comes together easily. The fresh herbs and lemon really liven this dish up while the nutty millet and hearty chickpeas keep it filling and comforting. Makes a perfect light meal or an accompanying side dish.

You know what makes an easy meal? Grains and beans…every time. They compliment each other so well. The possibilities are endless. And they are filling and healthy, too. My latest “throw it all in a pot” creation is this Lemon Millet w/ Chickpeas and Dill. I’ve been eating it for lunch the last few days, but it would also make a wonderful side dish to pretty much any entree.

I love the slightly nutty flavor of millet and it’s tender bite. It is quite mild, however, and takes on added flavors easily. In this dish, I loaded it up with bright, fresh lemon juice, scallions and lots of fresh flavorful herbs. I love the spicy pop of biting into a raw scallion!

I think chopped greens, like kale or spinach, would also be a great addition, but I didn’t have any at the time.

This is such an easy dish. You could easily change the flavor profile by adding different herbs or spices. A simple recipe to make your own.
