Popped Wheat or Wheat Nuts

-Aubrey

John was so excited to have these...I found the recipe at foodstoragemadeeasy.net. We tried 5 different flavors: Ranch, Garlic, Cinnamon & Sugar and cheese. Ranch was our favorite.

Take 1 cup of your cooked wheat berries (I simmered mine for 45 minutes and drained them) and add to a frying pan of pot with two tablespoons of oil in it. Cover with a lid and cook over a hot stove shaking the pan while it cooks. After about 4-5 minutes the kernels will be nice and toasted. Put the popped wheat on a paper towel to get the extra oil off, and sprinkle with your choice of seasonings. Try it with salt, seasoned salt, garlic, barbecue salt, onion salt, cinnamon and sugar or any combination you desire. These are delicious on salads as a topping, mixed with trail mix, or as toppings for a desserts or just as a healthy snack.
