Notes
Ezekial Mix:
8 cups white or golden wheat
½ cup Kamut*
½ cup spelt*
¼ cup lentils
¼ cup millet
½ cup mixed beans (pink, navy, pinto...whatever you have on hand) *Spelt and Kamut are ancient varieties of wheat that have not been hybridized.
They have different protein contents than our modern wheat. Many people who
are gluten-sensitive find these grains easier to digest than our modern wheat. If you're having a hard time finding the grains, they can be purchased online.
