Cooking Plain Wheat Berries

The easiest way to cook wheat berries, the whole kernel of wheat, is with a crockpot.

Before going to bed at night--
Place 2 cups of wheat in crockpot.
Cover with 6 cups of water.
Set crockpot to low and let cook for 12 hours.

The next morning you will have wheat berries ready for breakfast!
Add brown sugar or milk to the berries, just like you would for oatmeal. You will have a satisfying and very healthy breakfast!

This recipe can be easily doubled or tripled, depending on the size of your crockpot. With the extra wheat berries, save to use for later in your favorite lunch or dinner recipes. The berries can be refrigerated for 1-2 days or frozen for a month.
