Title: LENTIL AND WHEATBERRY SALAD
Categories: Digest, August
Yield: 1 servings
1 c Wheat berries
2 c Water
1/2 c Lentils (this was all I had
On hand--more would be Better)
1 c Water
x Assorted vegetables
x Herbs
x Fatfree dressing
Put wheat berries and 2 cups water in a saucepan, bring to a boil, reduce
heat, cover and simmer 45 min to 1 hour, until berries are tender, but
still chewy (not mushy).
Sort lentils, removing any deformed ones and any stones that may be mixed
in. Rinse a couple of times, then put them in saucepan with 1 cup of water,
bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer about 30 minutes, again, so
they are done but not mushy.
When both lentils and wheatberries are done, drain any excess water, put
into large bowl and chill while you cut up vegetables. Vegetables can vary
according to what you have on hand. I used:
yellow summer squash green pepper sweet onion peas (I used frozen peas,
straight from the bag--they helped chill the lentils and wheatberries while
thawing) mushrooms parsley (1-2 Tbsp chopped fresh) basil (1 Tbsp chopped
fresh)
For a dressing I used some 7-Seas fatfree red wine vinegar dressing--just
enough to coat everything, but not so much that it was swimming in dressing.
The bits of red pepper in the dressing also added a little more
color to the salad. (I would have added some chopped tomato, but we were
out.) Toss everything together well and chill (if you have time; I only
chilled it about 15 minutes last night--but the veggies were all cold when
I added them--and the frozen peas helped out, too). I served this with a
crusty sourdough bread. It made 3 servings. (Two for us last night, with
enough left for my lunch today.)

Title: BROWN RICE & WHEAT BERRIES (VEGAN) Categories: Digest, Dec.
Yield: 1 servings
2 1/4 c Water
1/3 c Wheat berries
1/3 c Brown rice
1 tb Saute fluid (pick your a Compatible favorite)
1/4 c Chopped scallion
1/4 ts Salt
1/8 ts Pepper
In 2qt pan, boil water. Add berries, return to boil. Reduce heat, simmer,
covered, 1 hour. Stir in brown rice. Cover, simmer 50 minutes longer. 5
minutes before rice is finished, saute scallion until softened. Combi ne
with rice and wheat mixture, along with spices.
Note: The original recipe called for 2 Tbs. pignoli (pine nuts), tosted in 1
Tbs butter, before adding the scallions. I simply eliminated them. I'll run
both combinations through my recipe program, and re-post if it can be done
<= 10% cff. The original recipe's 'Health Tip' suggested omitting salt,
substituting unsalted margarine, and/or eliminating the nuts.

Title: SPICY FATFREE CHILI
Categories: Digest, Jan.
Yield: 1 servings
1 c Uncooked hard wheat berries
2 Onions chopped
2 c Cooked pinto beans
3 tb (approx) cinnamon
1/4 c (approx) chili powder
1 16 oz. jar picante sauce
2 14 5 oz. cans chili
Tomatoes
1 4 5 oz. can green chilis
1 7 oz. can jalapeno relish
Cook the wheat berries in 2.5 cups of water (it will take about an hour).
Combine the remaining ingredients and simmer while the wheat berries are
cooking. Add the wheat berries when they are done and enjoy!
If the wheat berries do not absorb all the water, drain them before adding
to the chili. They should be a little chewy. I didn't measure the cinnamon
or chili powder; the measurements should be close though. The
pinto beans were fresh.

Title: OVERNIGHT WHOLE GRAIN CEREAL
Categories: Digest, Mar95
Yield: 1 servings
1 Part mixed whole grains
(e g. wheat berries, oats,
Buckwheat, hulled barley,
Rye, millet, etc.)
3 Parts water
1/3 Part raisins (optional)
Boil water Add grains [and raisins, if using them] Stir Bring to boil again
Turn off heat Cover pot Leave overnight as is [or in a warm oven]
(NOTE: I usually add raisins to already cooked cereal because I like the
texture. They turn out differently if they are added in the cooking stage.
They plump up and are really soft, which is nice sometimes. I guess other
types of dried fruit might work too.)
You can reheat this in the morning or eat it at room temp. Suggested
toppings included any of the following:
milk-type stuff molasses fruit sesame salt maple syrup
One variation the cookbook suggests is toasting and then grinding the
grains in a hand grinder before cooking. Apparently, this makes the grains
more nutty tasting.

ago.

1 teaspoon thyme
salt and pepper
1 pound smoked sausage cut into 1 inch pieces
1 pound pickled pork, rinsed and cut into cubes
Cooked Rice
Drain the beans. Put them in a large heavy pot and add 3 quarts of
fresh water. Cover and simmer for one hour or until the beans are
tender. Watch that the water does not boil down too far. The
beans must be covered with water at all times. Add the rest of the
ingredients, except for the rice. Add more water to cover if needed.
Simmer for 1 to 1 1/2 hours or until the liquid has thickened.
Serve over rice.

Here is a proven recipe for preparing in a crockpot. As a matter
of fact, I have this very same crock pot dish waiting for me when I get
home tonight.
RED BEANS AND HAM HOCKS.
Basically I just put the following ingredients in a crockpot:
Half of a small bag of red beans - picked and rinsed
Cut up a small onion - rinsed
Cut up a green bell pepper - without the seeds and rinsed
1 or 2 medium to large smoked ham hocks - wash and slice thru the skin
Pepper to taste
Small amount of salt (not too much since the ham hock tend to be salty)
Enough water to cover the ingredients in the crock pot
Let it cook on low for about 8 hours. I have been known to put on a pot
of beans just before going to bed or just before I leave for work. I
serve it over cooked rice with a slice of corn bread.
UUUMMMMM, so good it'll make you slap your momma!
