Description
I started clicking around my blog and quickly stumbled upon my butternut squash and wheat berry mock risotto. I loved that recipe! It was a huge hit in our house with both me and Ryan and I figured I could play around with different vegetables and come up with another wheat berry mock risotto dish for dinner this evening.
