You can make it in the instant pot or the stove but I like to can it so I have several pints in the pantry for quick meals.
​INGREDIENTS (6 servings)
  • 2 lbs sweet potato
  • 1 cup diced onion (white or yellow)
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 15.5 oz canned chickpeas  or canned navy beans (drained and rinsed)
  • 1 can green chilies
  • 1 TBSP extra virgin olive oil
  • 4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth or chicken broth
  • 2 TBSP harissa paste ( I used garlic chili paste) adjust to your tastes
  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • fresh cilantro leaves for topping

OPTIONAL EXRAS
  • crushed red pepper flakes
  • ground cinnamon
  • lime wedges
INSTANT POT INSTRUCTIONS 
  • Peel and cut sweet potatoes into 1-inch pieces. Dice onion and mince garlic. Drain and rinse chickpeas and set all your veggies aside separately.
  • Switch Instant Pot to SAUTE function and add a little cooking oil to the inner pot. Once hot, sauté onions until slightly tender, adding garlic at the very end and mixing well. 
  • Turn OFF Instant Pot and add vegetable broth. Mix well or scrape to deglaze the pot and make sure no browned bits of onion are left stuck to the bottom.
  • Add sweet potato cubes, chickpeas, harissa paste, cumin, salt, and pepper.
  • Lock lid with valve in the sealing position. Set to 3 minutes HIGH pressure. Soup may take 15-18 minutes to come to pressure before starting 3 min cook time. When the IP beeps, allow to naturally depressurize for 5 minutes then quick release the remaining pressure by flipping valve to venting position.
  • Allow a spoonful or so to cool and give it a taste! Adjust spice level to taste (I added extra harissa and red pepper flakes) and add any additional seasoning desired.
  • Spoon into bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro and lime wedges that can be squeezed into the soup for a burst of citrus flavor! A little cinnamon, Greek yogurt, or coconut milk also make tasty additions to this soup.  Enjoy!

INSTRUCTIONS FOR PRESSURE CANNING
This is what you put into each pint jar or double if you are using quart jars. I put the ingredients for each jar in a bowl mix then put into the jar. The jars are room temperature and ingredients are not cooked. 

Recipe for 1 pint jar:
135g chopped 3/4 inch pieces of sweet potatoes
35g chopped onions
12g dry great northern beans
23g green chilies (can has 198g)
  • The jars will be almost full (look at the picture below)
  • Add 1/8 -1/4 tsp garlic chili paste to each jar on top of ingredient

  • Make as many jars as you like adding the exact same ingredients.
  • Heat chicken stock and top all of the jars to 1 1/4 inch head space
  • Place in pressure canner and heat the jars
  • Once the jars are hot remove one at a time, wipe the rims with warm vinegar and place the lid and ring on. Put back into the canner. Repeat on each jar.
  • Pressure can 1 hour 15 minutes

When I open the jars to serve I used my stick hand blender and give the soup a few blends to cream the potatoes. It may be thick, adjust the taste with extra salt, chili or what ever you like. Add a bit of Greek yogurt, or coconut milk if you need to thin it down.

The recipe is easy and will give you a wonderful deep dish 10 pie. The texture is very silky with a hint of spices. 
Bake: 40-50 minutes
Oven: 375 degrees for 10 minutes
           275 degrees for the 30-40 minutes until set.
Pie: 10 inch deep dish pie plate
Recipe: 
2 quart jars of butternut squash or pumpkin ( well drained)
1 can sweetened condensed milk (14 oz)
3 large eggs

1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 tsp cinnamon
2 tsp grated fresh ginger
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
Note:
1/2 tsp. guar gum (optional) ...thickener just in case you didn't cook the butternut squash down enough.

Directions:
  • The key to this pie is to drain the liquid from the quart jars and cook the squash for 10 minutes or so.  Cook over medium heat on the stove top stirring so it will not burn. Heat until the liquid is gone and the mixture is thick.
  • Use an inversion blender or food processor to blend the squash until smooth. 
  • Cool a bit and add the sweetened condensed milk and blend.
  • Add the 3 eggs and spices to the mixture and blend.
  • Pour into the prepared whole grain pie crust. I did not blind bake the crust and it turns out fine.
  • Heat the oven to 375 degrees and place the pie on a baking sheet in the lower 1/3 of the oven. (Bake for 10 minutes)
  • Lower the oven to 275 degrees for the reminder of the baking (30-40 minutes)
  • Check to see if the center is set by giving the baking sheet a small shake. The center of the pie should be moving very little and not shiny. You can also stick a knife in the center to see if it comes out clean.
  • Remove and cool. It's best to let it sit overnight in the fridge before cutting not only will the texture be perfect but the flavor will be better.

  • Enjoy they are not too sweet and have a tender crumb. Freeze the extra for later. ​
]]><![CDATA[Herb and Apple Stuffing]]>Thu, 28 Oct 2021 22:32:23 GMThttp://www.wholegrain100.com/recipes/herb-and-apple-stuffingThis recipe comes from Ina Garten on Food Network. It makes 8-10 servings and is great as leftovers. You could use vegetable stock instead of chicken stock for those in your family that are vegans. I usually bake the stuffing in a casserole dish in the oven instead of stuffing the bird, but I put both options in the directions. This is also great with ham or as a side with pork, the apples are a nice addition with the meat.

Ingredients:
  • 16 cups of inch bread cubes (what ever you like)
  • 1/2 of a stick of butter (56g)
  • 2 cups diced yellow onions (2 large onions)
  • 2 cups diced celery (3 large stalks)
  • 2 Granny Smith apples (unpeeled cored and diced)
  • 2 T. fresh parsley or (1 T. dried)
  • 1 1/2 tsp fresh finely chopped rosemary (1/2 tsp. chopped dried rosemary)
  • 2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. pepper
  • 1 cup chicken stock
  • 1/2 cup sliced blanched almonds optional

Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
  2. Put the bread cubes on a 13 by 18 by 1-inch baking sheet and bake them in the oven for 7 minutes. Until dry and golden 
  3. In a large saute pan, melt the butter and add the onion, celery, apples, parsley, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Saute for 10 minutes, until the mixture is soft.
  4. Combine the bread cubes and cooked vegetables in a large bowl and add the chicken stock, and almonds, if desired.
  5. Place the stuffing into the main cavity of the turkey and into the neck of the bird. I cook a 12-pound turkey for 2 1/2 hours at 350 degrees F in a preheated oven. Make sure the stuffing in the cavity is secured by wrapping the legs tightly with string.
  6. I baked in a casserole dish I used more stock (about 2 1/2 - 3 cups in total). I kept adding half a cup at time until bread crumbs were soft but not mushy. Bake at 350. I cover it with foil for the first 30 mins to hold in the heat to avoid a mushy middle, then take the foil off and do another 10 mins to crisp up the top. 

]]><![CDATA[Whole Grain Pie Crust]]>Sun, 25 Apr 2021 18:51:13 GMThttp://www.wholegrain100.com/recipes/whole-grain-pie-crustThis pie crust recipe is easy to make and easy to handle the perfect crust. The best part is it's made with 100% whole grains. I use soft white berries and oat berries for the flour in the crust. You can use a different mixture but it needs to be low in gluten so no hard wheat berries. The reason I chose these 2 berries is the soft white is pastry flour and the oats have no gluten and give a nice taste.

Scale...Once you have one you will wonder how you baked without it.
Food Processor ... Not required but makes the job easier.

]]><![CDATA[Red and Green Pizza Garlicky Blend]]>Fri, 19 Feb 2021 14:44:03 GMThttp://www.wholegrain100.com/recipes/red-and-green-pizza-garlicky-blendI buy larger quantities of dry spices and mix my own seasoning mixes. This works well for me because I can limit the number of spices that I buy and then make specific mixes that I use. I control the amount of salt in fact none of my mixes have salt in them so I add salt at the end in the dish as needed.

I recommend a nice little book "Herb Mixtures & Spicy Blends" by Maggie Oster. You can get it on line, it's a good book of mixes that I'm sure will help you in your everyday meals. This recipe comes from this  book and I always have a small jar in the panty and use it daily.

Red & Green Pizza Garlicky Blend
Yield: 1/3 cup
  • 2 T. dried oregano
  • 1 T. dried basil
  • 1/2 T. fennel seeds (I don't crush)
  • 1/2 T. dried thyme
  • 1 tsp. garlic granules ( I reduce to 1/2 tsp.)
  • 1 T. cayenne Pepper flakes (I reduced to 1/2 T. )
Combine all ingredients and store in an airtight jar away from heat and light.

Uses:
Anything that needs a jolt of spice, like spaghetti, pizza, soups, omelets....]]><![CDATA[Kamut Pilaf With Roasted Butternut Squash]]>Thu, 18 Feb 2021 20:02:48 GMThttp://www.wholegrain100.com/recipes/kamut-pilaf-with-roasted-butternut-squash1695144This recipe serves 10 as a side dish, but you can cut it in half.  Can be served at room temperature or warm slightly as a side dish.

Bake Time: 50-60 minutes
Bake Temperature: 50-60 minutes
Pan: 8 inch square or a 9 inch round cake pan

Ingredients:
6 T. butter
3/4c. flour (136g soft white flour) any lower gluten grain will work
1/2 c. sugar (100g) (use more or less you decide)
1 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
3/4 c. milk (183g)
1 tsp. vanilla
2-3 c. fruit fresh or frozen berries

Directions:
  1. Adjust oven rack to upper-middle position, and heat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Put butter in an 8-inch square or 9-inch round pan; set in oven to melt. When butter has melted, remove pan from oven.
  3. Whisk flour, 1/2 cup of sugar, baking powder and salt in small bowl. Add milk; whisk to form a smooth batter. Pour batter into pan right over the melted butter do not mix in.  Then scatter fruit over batter. Sprinkle with remaining 1 Tb. of sugar.
  4. Bake until batter browns and fruit bubbles, 50 to 60 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature with a dollop of whipped cream or a small scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.
Other options:
If you don't have any fresh or frozen fruit a large 29oz can of peaches works perfect. Drain the peaches and save the juice. Use the juice instead of the milk in the recipe. You can reduce the sugar in the recipe if you use canned fruit.

Add spices, like cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamon use your favorite depending on the fruit you added.

Instead of just melting the butter in the pan, brown it to bring out more flavor.

One last note, if you're using berries, especially raspberries, add an additional 1T of flour to the batter, which will help it not to be quite so "wet".

You can mix it with coffee to make a wonderful Pumpkin Spice Latte. If you want to use almond milk it will also work for those that are dairy-free.

Ingredients For A Single Serving
  • 1 cup whole milk, heated until very warm (whole, 2%, 1% skim)
          Or (mix milk with half coffee for a Latte)
  • 1/4 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1 tablespoon sugar (to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (to taste)
  • 2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • Whipped cream, optional
  • Cinnamon, optional topping
Instructions
  1. Place all ingredients in blender. Remove center cap from the lid of the blender and use a folded kitchen towel to loosely hold the cap over the hole in a manner that steam can escape. Turn on the blender to low and then increase it to high. Blend ingredients until frothy. Transfer mixture to a mug, top with whipped cream, if desired, and sprinkle with additional pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon.
Note:
I wouldn't recommend making more than 2 serving at a time in the blender, as the mixture will rise up when you first turn on the blender.

I have to admit I love upside down cakes, they are loaded with fruit and you don't have to ice them. This recipe is based on a recipe from America's Test Kitchen. I have modified it to suit my tastes and to work better with 100% whole grains. Fall is the perfect time for pears and this cake really shows them off.
Oven: 300 degrees
Bake: 70 - 75 minutes
Pan: 9 inch round cake pan (best if light in color) Lined with parchment paper

Ingredients:
Topping
4 T. unsalted butter, melted (57g)
1/2 c. brown sugar (100g)
2 tsp. cornstarch
1/8 tsp. salt
3 ripe but firm Bosc pears  about 1.5 pounds (680g)

Cake
1 c. walnuts, toasted
1/2 c. Soft White Berries - Pastry Flour (75g)
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. baking powder
1/8 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. ginger
1/4 tsp. cloves

3 large eggs
1 c. sugar (200g)
4 T. unsalted butter, melted  (57g)
1/4 c. vegetable oil (56g)
1 tsp. vanilla

Directions:
Toppings
  • Grease the 9 inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper. Pour the melted butter over the bottom of the pan and swirl to evenly coat. Combine the sugar, cornstarch and salt in a small bowl and sprinkle evenly over the melted butter.
  • Peel, half, and core the pears. Set aside 1 pear half and reserve for another use. Cut the remaining 5 pears halves into 4 wedges each. Arrange the pears in a circular pattern around the cake pan with tapered ends pointing inward. Arrange the two smallest pear wedges in the center.
Cake
  • Pulse the walnuts, flour, salt, spices, baking powder and baking soda in a food processor until the walnuts are finely ground. This will take about 8-10 pulses. Transfer this mixture to  a small bowl.
  • Process the eggs, vanilla and sugar in the now empty food processor until very pale yellow, about 2 minutes. With the food processor running add the melted butter and oil in a steady stream until incorporated.
  • Add the walnut mixture and pulse to combine about 4-5 pulses. Pour batter evenly over the pears. Some pear may be showing through, that is OK the batter will bake up over the pears.
  • Bake until the center of the cake is set and bounces back when gently pressed and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 70 minutes. You may need to rotate the cake half way through the baking process to cook evenly.
  • Let the cake cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Then run a knife around the sides of the pan and invert the cake onto a wire rich. Remove the parchment paper and let the cake cool completely about 2 hours

This is a classic French dessert. It has a custardy, apple base with a cake like topping. The choice of apples is Granny Smith but any apple or a combination would work.

Brioche is a rich buttery bread that can be used for many things like French toast, bread pudding or even pastry tarts. I use this recipe when I make my individual tarts. The dough is easy to handle, rolls thin but will hold up when removed from the pastry form. The result is a perfect tart, with a buttery crust. Then you  fill it with the lemon curd and you can't go wrong.

This recipe is from Peter Reinhart's Whole Grain Breads. The recipe is an indirect dough which means it needs 2 days to make.
 Day 1
Soaker:
1 3/4 c. hard white or red flour (227g) - I use hard white it's lighter in color
1/2 tsp. salt (4g)
1/2 c. whole milk, scalded & cooled (113g)
1 c. butter (unsalted, melted)

Directions
  • Mix all of the ingredients together until the flour is incorporated and forms a ball
  • Cover and place in the refrigerator overnight or up to 3 days. Leave it in the fridge until you are ready to use because the butter must be cold.

Biga:
1 3/4c. hard white or red flour (227g) - I use hard white it's lighter in color
1/4 tsp. instant yeast (1g)
4 large eggs beaten (184g)

Directions
  • Mix all of the ingredients together to form a ball. Knead for about 2 minutes until all of the ingredients are mixed. The dough will be very sticky.
  • Let the dough rest for 5 minutes then knead it again for about 1 minute until it becomes smoother but still a little sticky.
  • Cover and refrigerate overnight or up to 3 days
  • Leave the biga in the fridge until you are ready to use, cold is better.

Day 2
Final Additions in a small bowl
1 c. hard white or red flour (128g) - I use hard white flour
5/8 tsp. salt (5g)
2 1/4 tsp. instant yeast (7g)
3 T. sugar (42g)
Mix together

Directions
  • Remove the soaker and biga from the fridge.
  • Lay the soaker on the counter and flatten into a disk
  • Flatten the biga into a disk and lay on top of the soaker
  • Cut thru both and put them into your mixer - as you are doing this add the final additions to the mixer.  Continue until all of the cut up dough is added to the bowl along with the final additions.
  • Mix on low for about 4 minutes until they form together and become a soft dough.

There is no bulk proof needed shape as you desire. I use the dough to make the crust for my individual tarts. This recipe will make about 18 small tarts. So you can cut it in half if you wish. I roll the dough out to a 6 inch round and place into small individual pie pans.

Cover and let raise for 2 - 4 hours at room temperature. (depending on temperature of the room)
Put the Lemon Curd filling into each tart using a #24 scoop (1/3 c.)

Bake 15 -18 minutes
Pre heat oven to 375 degrees F.
Bake: 5 minutes at 375 degrees F.
Bake: 10 minutes at 350 degrees F.

You can use this in donuts, any pastry that is filled with a cream filling. Not only is this stable but it is healthy, the beans provide protein and the ricotta cheese is low in fat.

Cream Filling  (top favorite recipe of mine)
Ingredients
  • 1 (15 oz) can drained white navy beans (any white bean will work) 
  •   or (250 g) of  beans if you cook them yourself.
  • 1/4 c.sugar (50 g)
  • 1 Ricotta cheese 15 oz.
  • 3 T  powdered sugar (23 g)
  • 1 tsp vanilla

Directions
In your food processor put the drained beans and sugar, pulse until all the beans form a paste. Add the ricotta cheese and pulse again until well mixed. Add the powdered sugar (more if you need it sweeter) and the vanilla. Again pulse until well blended. Mixture freezes well you will have plenty left for next time. This is a great cream filling you will never know it has beans in it....very healthy.

Looking for a nice side dish or maybe a light lunch this is the perfect dish. Here in Arkansas lettuce does not grow well in the garden so I have to get creative for my lunches. Making up a batch of Millet as a base for lots of fresh vegetables or even dried fruit and nuts like this recipe is a nice change from a salad.




Cook Time: 20 minutes
Servings: 4

Ingredients:
  • 1 cup millet
  • 1 3/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup dried apricots (about 8) roughly chopped
  • 1/4 cup shelled pistachios roughly chopped
  • 1 lemon zest and juice
  • 1 1/2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 cup fresh parsley chopped
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:
  • Place the millet and water in the Instant Pot and close the lid. Using the pressure cooker function on high, set the timer for 10 minutes.
  • Allow the pressure to release naturally.
  • Once the pressure has released, remove the lid. Add the remaining ingredients to the cooked millet. Stir everything together to combine. Taste and adjust the seasonings, as needed. Enjoy!
Notes
Don't forget to zest the lemon before squeezing the juice. If you don't have an Instant Pot or other pressure cooker, prepare the millet in a medium pot according to the package directions. Then follow the rest of the recipe and add in the remaining ingredients.

It could even be used as a dessert served with whipped cream or ice cream on top. You could also use your instant pot for this recipe if you like.

Yields: 2 Servings (double if you like and save for another morning)

Instant Pot Directions:
  • Put all of the ingredients except the maple syrup and the pecans into your instant pot and close the lid.
  • Using the pressure cooker function on high, set the timer for 10 minutes.
  • Once cooked allow the pressure to release naturally.
  • After cooled enough to open your pot check to make sure you like the consistency and adjust using the saute button if you need to thicken it a bit.
  • Dish out and add your maple syrup and pecan on top
  • Enjoy

Recipe:
  • 1/2 cup uncooked millet
  • 1 1/3 cups water
  • 1/3 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/2–1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • pinch clove
  • maple syrup, to taste
  • toasted pecans, to top
 
Stove Top Directions:
  1. Combine millet, water, pumpkin, and spices together in a sauce pan. Stir and bring to a boil the cover and reduce down to a simmer. Let cook for 20-30 minutes until millet is cooked and tender. Stir and check occasionally while cooking, adding extra water as needed. It’s all about the kind of texture and consistency you want.
  2. When almost done, add a bit of maple syrup and taste. Start on the low end (a teaspoon or two) and continue until you’ve reached a desired sweetness.
  3. Remove from heat and serve with toasted walnuts (and a bit of heavy cream if you like!)
