Truth be told, I was a vegetarian for 3 yrs during college. That’s why I have a bunch of vegetarian recipes. Here is a breakfast recipe I specifically created for my hubby in college so that I could include as much protein and as little fat as possible in his diet. After all, we were athletes! ~ Kimberly Edwards 
According to Wikipedia, it is one of the oldest known meals in Eastern European Cuisine, meaning it is at least 1000 yrs old!

Instructions:
1. In a medium-sized pot, combine water, kasha, salt and raisins.
2. Bring to a boil, and then down to a low simmer. This mixture will take about 15-20 min to cook.

Extremely healthy for you. It is low fat, very hearty, and vegetarian.
…I haven’t made this in about 2 yrs, but when Kenney found out I was making it this morning, he was pretty happy.
My mother had never had this before either, and tried it today. She said that she liked it, but I rather think it is somewhat of an acquired taste.
I truly hope you enjoyed this installment of Cooking With Kimberly.
Let me know if you like the nutrition charts! I think they are so neat!
Eat Deliciously,

P.S. I like to use organic kasha, so I tried to find you a great deal on organic kasha online. Check it out here:
