Buckwheat and Barley

Here are some pictures of a few different types of whole grains. There are so many out there, you should try some new grains at least once! Because depending upon the grain, you may get different vitamins and minerals you may not usually get with eating only the common grains. So test out a few and see which ones you like. Here are a couple.
Buckwheat
Buckwheat, as you know, is good milled into flour to make pancakes. But did you know that it can also be cooked whole and used as a meat replacement? I have a few recipes for using buckwheat that I might post later.

Barley
Barley is good in soups and as hot cereals. Or it can also be milled into flour like regular wheat and used in baking.

Those are only a couple, I'll be posting up more pictures of the different types of whole grains a bit later. Thanks for reading though and have a great day! :)
