The Three Bear's Porrage Recipe








Here is a recipe you may enjoy for breakfast (or dinner) straight from long term food storage that should give you a big dose of fiber, flavor and nutrition!

THREE BEARS PORRIDGE
(With Extra Special Options)

1/2 C. cracked wheat
1/2 C. rolled oats
1/4 C. dry milk powder
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 C. raisins
3 C. boiling water or scalded milk
honey to taste

Add dry ingredients to boiling water (or milk) in saucepan. Stir until thoroughly mixed. Bring back to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 10 to 15 minutes, or until desired consistency. Add honey to taste.

Optional:
1/4 C. dried fruit (such as dates, raisins, etc.)
1/4 C. chopped apple
1/4 C. bran
1/4 to 1/2 C. wheat germ or flax seeds
2 T. nutritional yeast
1/2 C. sunflower seeds
2 eggs

Any of these may be added to the above porridge, if desired. Combine and cook as you would with the three bears porridge. Then stir in eggs, if desired, cover and let stand 1-2 minutes.

Variation: Any combination of grains may be substituted for oats and cracked wheat. You may also make a large batch ahead of time for convenience. Adjust cooking time for the grains used, cooking for the amount of time required by the longest cooking grain you used.

*This is a great way to reduce expenses and cholesterol! :) Enjoy!!
