Kasha pilaf

including lightly sauteed veggies yellow squash, zuchinni, plenty of mushrooms, onions, broccoli, using chicken broth (not the store bought kind).    Kasha is buckwheat, has a nutty flavor, high in protein, fiber and gluten free.  A coupla boiled eggs and we're set.   

I miss team cooking... Ya know, when you and your friends or your sisters, grandma, mom could all hang out, shoot the breeze and whip up something fantastic.

has a natural nutty flavor....It's actually buckwheat....You can make it like a pilaf and add tons of sauteeted veggies of your choice, light meat (chkn, shrimp, whatever).  I recommend chkn broth or vegetable broth rather than water to cook it in.   Can be used as a side dish...(mushrooms and onions, yummy) or even a breakfast cereal cooking with water and adding dried apricots, raisins, prunes, pinapple...the possibilities are endless. 

It can be found at larger grocery stores like Kroger or Publix and at Mediterranian specialty shops.
