Guest guest Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 I threw away the last of it this morning. And then I remembered that I was having stuffed peppers tonight and I probably could have used it as a stuffer " . What do you think? Instead it's the same old Morningstar and brown rice.

Guest guest Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 You don't like leftovers to heat up? I love leftovers. My husband does too. I send him leftovers from our dinner for his lunch the next day. Saves us a lot of money and I know he is getting healthy food.

Guest guest Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 For some reason, leftovers never get eaten in our house. And of course, I could have fed them to the dogs.....except it had onions. And there really wasn't that much left of the barley mix after our plate full.

Guest guest Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 Yes this would've been fantastic in peppers...but you will just have to do that next time! I love using variety in my stuffed peppers such as barlety, cous cous, etc. instead of rice. But typically I try to jazz it up and instead of the morning star and rice, will take brown rice with some corn, black beans, diced tomatoes and lots of seasonings. It bakes up very nice and is a fantastic combination of flavors! Thanks for the recipe, it sounds delish! I will have to try it (and cheat with stuffing idea as well). ~Amber Looking for a deal?

Guest guest Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 I stuffed peppers w/spelt & stuff tonight. If the kids like it, I'll send the recipe along. I'm in search of spelt & kamut recipes. They're hard to find! Beth Amber Lucas <amber.lucas wrote: Yes this would've been fantastic in peppers...but you will just have to do that next time!
