Wheat Chili


Last year we had a sister from the ward came and taught us how to use wheat more. The food she prepared was delicious but I forgot all about it until we had the class again at a stake activity. I decided that I really want to make it a goal to incorporate wheat into my diet at least once a week. this chili is very easy and delicious, plus wheat is really cheap and makes your meat go a lot farther.

Here's what you will need:
1/2 lb. hamburger
1 large onion chopped
1/2 green pepper chopped (I used a red pepper because it was on sale and it was still delicious, just not very colorful)
1 tsp. chili powder
1 tsp. garlic salt or 1 clove garlic
1 tsp. oregano or cumin
1 28oz. can stewed tomatoes
2-3 c. tomato sauce
2 c. whole wheat- uncooked
4 c. water
Steam wheat in water for about an hour. Brown hamburger, onion, and green pepper until cooked. Add wheat and other ingredients. Simmer for 30 min. or cook in crock pot on low for 4 hours.
