Sorghum, Feta, Mint and Cranberry Salad

Sorghum, or millet, is taste-wise pretty close to brown rice, so I decided I can do a substitution in this recipe:

Feta, mint, nuts (I only had pistachios) and cranberries turn out to be a darn good combo. Furthermore, according to this post: http://www.allaboutfasting.com/healthy-grains.html it turns out  “millet is especially regarded for the treatment of candida yeast overgrowth. Yeast thrive on all the refined sugars we consume and can actually create sugar cravings within us. I have personally found that after eating millet there is a definite lack of a craving for sweets, as if it has somehow magically “subdued” the yeast.”

That is some sorcery – reducing sugar cravings! I plan on using sorghum more often. And not calling it just millet. Sorghum sounds more exotic (and reminds me of a big Chinese movie production in the 80’s called “Red Sorghum”).
