Categories: kale, wheatberries

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups wheat berries
• ■ 2 medium yellow onions – see instructions below
• ■ 5 sprigs thyme
• ■ 1 tablespoon kosher salt plus more
• ■2-3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil - The recipe called for 8 tablespoons but we did not feel we needed all the oil, so we just added what we felt was necessary.
• ■freshly ground black pepper
• ■ 1 bunch kale, de-stemmed, leaves torn into 2-inch pieces (about 8 packed cups) – I used curly kale for this recipe
• ■ 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Directions

1. Combine wheat berries, 1 onion half, 5 thyme sprigs, and 1 tablespoon salt in a large saucepan; add water to cover by 2 inches.

2. The below photo was taken before I put in the water, of course, but I thought it was pretty so I snapped up a picture.
