Serving Ideas : Served with tossed salad and bread to feed a hungry group!
NOTES : I got this recipe from a friend in the Cascade Bicycle Club. It doubles and triples easily for a crowd and freezes well also.
Be sure to use the soft wheatberries not hard ones as they soften and cook easier.

Serves 6.
