What’s this all about?
We love whole grains! We have found that we prefer their flavor. They are also far healthier than the refined foods which characterize the typical modern diet.
Switching to whole grains helps maintain a low glycemic diet. That means you will have more sustainable energy levels throughout the day, and probably fewer problems with weight control.
We created this website with one goal: to build an online community of like-minded people who either share our enthusiasm about whole grains or just want to learn more about them.

The time I spend on what ultimately becomes the content for this website affords me an opportunity to enjoy some of my favorite things: cooking, eating, photography, and writing. The only thing I would rather do is travel, particularly when it includes cooking, eating, and photography. My family and I just returned from San Diego, California, where we had the rare luxury of spending 12 days with some of our favorite people in the world. The time and distance which has long separated us immediately vanished from the first embrace we shared. Together we enjoyed many wonderful meals and created new memories to strengthen the bond of our friendship. I could go on at length about this trip, but I’ll keep it relevant. While I didn’t do much in the way of whole grain cooking or eating during this trip, my breakfast on several days was this oat bran bread. I love this bread and just picked up the necessary ingredients to make it again at home. It makes a great breakfast, particularly if you prepare it in advance for days when you are on the go. It is packed with nutrients. An ounce of oat bran has 6 grams of protein, 150 milligrams of potassium, 20% of the RDA of vitamin B1, and 8% of the RDA of iron. It is also very satisfying, so enjoy a large piece and you won’t find yourself needing to snack much in between meals. It’s a great change of pace if you find yourself reaching for a box of cereal on most mornings. Give it a try and then join me in thanking Vicki for sharing it with us.
