More on Wheat...

In the last 10 months since I posted about the different uses of wheat that I have discovered.  I have played with the recipe.  From one cup of  wheat berries I get about 4 cups cooked.  So I am able to make 4 small loaves of bread, one pan of cinnamon rolls, AND a double batch ot the tortilla recipe listed below all from that one cup of uncooked wheat berries. 

I just started playing with sprouting wheat so we will see what comes of that.  Hopefully it won't take me 10 months to get you up to speed with that.
