2 c Cracked wheat or wheat

Berries 2 c Chopped tomatoes

1 c Chopped cucumbers

1 x Chopped purple onion

x Fatfree yogurt x Balsamic vinegar x Sugar start with 2 cups of cooked cracked wheat. I just boil it until its done. Actually I think you are supposed to use boiled wheat berries. Add an equal amount of chopped tomatoes and half as much chopped cucumbers and chopped purple onion to taste. For dressing I use fatfree yogurt with basimaic vinegar and some sugar. Yogurt or sour cream with dried italian salad dressing would also be good. From: MARGE ROBBINS Fatfree Digest [Volume 9 Issue 11] Formatted by Sue Smith, S.Smith34, TXFT40A@Prodigy.com using MMCONV
