Whole Grain Casserole

From whole grains every day, every way. With cauliflower salad.

I made this casserole for Larry and Jay because my massage therapist Kris said it was really good. I gave her the cookbook at the beginning of the year, since she loves whole grains so much. We really liked it, and it was good leftover. I used wheatberries for the grain. It could be made vegetarian by leaving out the sausage.

I've made a lot of gingerbread, but this one really did it for me. The gingerbread itself isn't anything special, but the addition of chunks of milk chocolate make the cake. Larry prefers something more ginger-y. But I'm the one doing the cooking so this is what he got.
