Now I love nothing more than a good salad, especially in the summer. So when pod approached me as a UK lifestyle blogger about featuring a guest recipe in the form of a supergrain salad on The Nutritionista I jumped at the chance. I love this recipe from pod because its jam packed full of goodness and super tasty. So before we get into the recipe itself here is a bit of background on pod.
