  1. Loved it. Although, I changed so many things it is not quite the same recipe. No salt, no raisins nor peanuts. A green bell pepper because the reds are so expensive. Parsley. I added 2 sliced green onions and half a cucumber, diced. I did not make the dressing separately. I used olive oil and soy sauce instead of canola oil and miso. I used powdered garlic and ginger and only a half teaspoon of brown sugar. Turned out fabulous. The millet was more sticky than fluffy. I wish it had been part of ZWT this year!
