THE SPROUTED GRAIN DIFFERENCE

Without reiterating pages of written information, go to              http://www.foodforlife.com/sprouted-grain-difference.html
This site gives you their explanation for eating sprouted grains and seeds, and an overview of their products that are produced from sprouted grains and seeds.

Besides the many Ezekiel products available at many food stores ( Linguine, Penne, English Muffins, Breads, Cereals and Tortillas ) I have also discovered some other whole grain products.

"Mary's Gone Crackers" offers a taste great wheat-free, gluten free crispy cracker in various sizes. No sugar and No flour is listed on the ingredients.  Serving size is approx 1 oz = approx 13 crackers.  These are great crunched up in salads, with tuna, or along with any dish that you would like to add a little crunch to.

Real Foods puts out a Corn Thins that is multigrain.  They are fat free, no sugar, and gluten free.  Although I have a bag of these ( found them at Albertsons' in the rice cake section ) I haven't tried them yet.

My husband got very creative the one night and used bulgar ( the size I would use when making Tubule), 1/2 cu. with salt and pepper to taste, as a "breading" in which he dredged some rock cod.  Then he pan fried it in our teflon coated pan, with 1 tsp olive oil and chopped garlic.  When it was cooked, he garnished with fresh lemon juice.  Delicious.

I have been toying with measuring 1/2 cu bulgar and then putting it into my blender to reduce this to a "flour" consistency to see how much ( in ounces and in cup measurement ) this would yield.  What would I do with it then?  Maybe, just maybe I could make a pizza dough for an individual size pizza.  I'll let you know.
