Healthy, hearty, served with a dab of butter and sprinkled with brown sugar or drizzled with a bit of honey, cracked wheat cereal is a great way to start the day.
Cooking this overnight in the slow cooker makes it even better. Breakfast is ready before you are!
To cook on the stovetop, bring 3 cups of water to a boil. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt and stir in the 1 cup of cracked wheat. Turn the heat down, cover and cook over low heat for 15 - 20 minutes (could be up to 30 minutes depending on the size of the wheat), stirring occasionally.
