Buckwheat Groats

I picked up some buckwheat groats from the bulk bins at Jimbo's.  Despite the "wheat" they are actually a fruit and are gluten-free.  I prepared them like the grits except I toasted them for a few with the sauteed aromatics before adding about 4 1/2 cups of water.  These also have roasted New Mexico chilies and grilled zucchini.  They are way more tender than I thought they'd be.  A good hearty breakfast.



Henry's on 3rd and J in Chula Vista is a great place to shop the bulk bins for cool grains and stuff.  It is full of vegan goodness and blows the North Park store away.  Ride your bike down there and enjoy the wildlife along the cool bike path.  Unless you drive everywhere you go, but then you probably hate this blog, in which case, thanks for reading it anyway and continue not posting comments.  Also, don't breed too much.
