Using grains

Yesterday was our wards first enrichment activity.  My theme for this years monthly activities is "Dollars and Sense".  Each month we will be learning about and discussing a different topic that will help us stretch our dollar or manage our resources better.  My friend Chris taught a class on cooking with different grains and the benefits of each one.  Not only are these healthier, but also so economical. I am excited to try to incorporate some in our family's meal plan. I really liked the Mexican flavored millet and the quinoa pilaf.  My goal this month is try to use one of these grains each week in some form.  This is the handout she made and my scribbled notes.  Just click on it and it will bring it up large enough to read.
