Groats Cereal

Buckwheat Groats are extremely high in fiber and protein. They are also a good source of potassium and magnesium. This is a good recipe for diabetics because the cinnamon and groats help regulate blood sugar and the natural, non-refined sugar does not affect blood sugar as much as other forms of sugar. Special thanks to Laura Miller from “Raw. Vegan. Not Gross”.  Find her website at https://imlauramiller.com

Hash browns

I mixed up my facts at the time I made this video so I apologize. Starch is what helps the potatoes get crispy. Disregard what I say in the video about using non starchy potatoes and  soaking the potatoes for extended periods of time. Instead, try to use a russet or a Yukon gold potato. Also, only rinse the potatoes for a short period of time just to remove any impurities. If you would like, add cheese or other add in’s while the potato is cooking.

Makes 4 servings

-6 Small peeled starchy potatoes

-1 Tablespoon of Maple Syrup (Or Normal White Sugar)

-2 Teaspoons of Salt

-1/4 cup of vegetable oil

-1/2 Teaspoon pepper

-Pepper

1. Shred and briefly rinse potatoes to remove any dirt. Drain off all water.
2. Add maple syrup and half of the salt and mix until the potato shreds are evenly coated.
3. Heat oil and  add potato shreds. Add the rest of the salt and pepper. Cook until brown on the bottom. Mix up and continue to cook.
4. Repeat the process of cooking and mixing until the potatoes have reached your desired texture.
5. Serve with ketchup and enjoy.
