Seven-Grain and Black Bean Pilaf

2 cups chicken broth or water
1 cup Kashi Seven Whole Grains and Sesame Pilaf
1 1/2 cups (cooked) black beans, drained, rinsed
1 cup each: peeled diced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes
1/3 cup chopped fresh chives or cilantro
1/4 cup organic red wine vinegar
5 tablespoons organic flaxseed oil
3/4 cup diced feta cheese

Frontera Hot Sauce, to taste, any flavor

Heat broth to simmer in a 2-quart saucepan. Stir in Kashi Pilaf. Simmer gently, uncovered, until grains are tender and all liquid has been absorbed, about 25 minutes. Remove from heat; cover and let stand 5 minutes.
Stir in the remaining ingredients along with about 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon fresh pepper. Serve slightly warm or at room temperature.
