I undertook an experiment today. Same spent grain dough, split and formed into sandwich rolls instead of loaves. I can vacuum seal and freeze the batch individually, thawing for carrot dogs, etc.

Even though the weather is cold, the sky is clear and the sun is bright. Spending some time with Andrea and the pups while my lunch is in the Instant Pot.

I have been expanding my lunchtime repertoire. The base is barley, rye, oats and lentils. Topped with radish, carrot, sprouts, and hemp hearts. Dressed with soy sauce and gochujang.
