More Food for thought

Southern food, I was raised on it. My grandma was from Booneville, Kentucky. I ate things like mustard greens, fried chicken, cooked down green beans, biscuits and gravy... mmmm!

I have read and also talked to a nutritionist person and the general consensus seems to be avoid white sugar and white flour....

So I tried this Saturday to make a little change to my biscuits and gravy, whole wheat. So first we tried momma's recipe with all whole wheat.... not bad, not great, the recipe needs adjusting a little cause it was not uber fluffy. But the gravy was good I used whole wheat there also and man the only difference seemed to be texture but it was right on.

I usually by whole wheat pastry flour but this time I grabbed the wrong bag so it was just regular whole wheat. The difference being that it is ground more, it looks more like regular flour as well. So once it is perfected I will post it here.
