Step 1

Bring the water and millet to a boil in a small to medium saucepan over high heat, uncovered. Reduce the heat to low, then cover and simmer for 25 minutes. While the millet is cooking, you can prepare the remaining ingredients.

Step 2

After cooking the millet, remove it from heat and let it sit for 10 minutes with the lid on, then fluff it with a fork, and let cool totally or mostly.

Step 3

Add the millet to a large bowl along with all of the remaining ingredients, and toss to combine. Season with black ground pepper if desired. For the best flavor, served chilled after 2 to 3 hours or after refrigerating overnight. Store in an airtight container in the fridge up to 4 days.
