Hello! There are so many sites about food storage, and more popping up every week. I will put new links up on the side bar of this blog, as I discover them.
One of the new ones is www.thereadyproject.com
Do check it out. You can host parties (just like Tupperware parties, but you sell gourmet food storage and serve samples of the foods at your party.)Imagine that!
Move over, Pampered Chef!
I recently have been informed that the www.meridianmagazine.com site posts weekly meals ideas from your food storage. You can look in their Food Storage Recipe Archives for past meal ideas and recipes. Doesn't this casserole look good? It is made with wheat berries! Well...and hamburger meat, too. But it is a luscious looking thing to present to your family as you ease them into eating more whole wheat. Here is the recipe that I cut and paste from that site.
This recipe reminds us that we can cook our wheat berries overnight in our crockpots!
Wheat and Hamburger Casserole
2 cups whole wheat berries,* cooked (using THRIVE Whole Wheat)
1 clove garlic, minced
1 lb. of hamburger
1 tsp. cumin or oregano
1 cup THRIVE Onions
1 qt. jar tomatoes or 2 ––16 oz cans diced tomatoes (partially drained)
½ cup THRIVE Mixed Peppers
1 tsp. chili powder
2 8 oz cans tomato sauce
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 small can chopped olives
2 cups grated Jack cheese
PREPARATION:
Brown hamburger with onions and peppers in large skillet. Add wheat along with spices. Stir in tomatoes, sauce, and olives. Simmer for 30 minutes. Place in an oven-proof casserole dish, top with cheese, and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
*To make wheat berries simply cook in crock pot on low over night: 2 cups water to 1 cup of wheat .
