Instructions

1. Steam the squash in a double boiler or steamer basket for 10 minutes, or until tender. Be careful not to overcook. Set aside and let cool.
2. Place the buckwheat and 1¾ cups hot water in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Remove from the heat, cover, and let stand for 10 minutes, until the water is absorbed and the grains are soft but chewy. Drain any excess water. Fluff the grains with a fork and set aside to cool.
3. To make the dressing, combine the lemon juice, vinegar, and garlic in a small bowl. Add salt and pepper to taste.
4. In a large mixing bowl, combine the squash, buckwheat, onions, tomatoes, and cilantro or parsley. Add the dressing and mix well.
5. In another bowl, toss the arugula and spinach in the orange juice. Place the greens on individual salad bowls, and top with the grain mixture. Serve garnished with the pumpkin seeds, either chilled or at room temperature.
