Have you tried the recipe for Millet Pilaf with Dried Mushrooms<\/a>?\u00a0 You might notice something about millet:\u00a0 1 cup of uncooked millet makes a lot of pilaf!<\/p>\n
While I didn’t actually measure the finished product, I’ve always noticed that millet cooks up to more than, say, brown rice.\u00a0 So after two days of straight leftovers, I was scratching my head for options.<\/p>\n
Our recent class on the Think Ahead and Plan Habit <\/a>talked about leftovers since they can be a big challenge.\u00a0 I shared a simple system for making patties and loafs as a way to use up leftovers.\u00a0 And that is what came to mind this morning as I cast about for ideas to use, rather than toss, my leftover millet pilaf.<\/p>\n

This “pancake solution” can be used with other leftover grains, too, like brown rice, buckwheat and quinoa.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
Knowing the simple “Pancake System,” it was easy to make a “Millet Pilaf Pancake with Greens.”\u00a0 Saute onions and greens, stir in the cooked millet and a spice blend, then form into a pancake shape.\u00a0 Pour an egg-milk mixture over the top and cook, covered, over low heat.\u00a0 Flipping the pancake is the only (slightly) tricky part–but don’t worry if your pancake doesn’t come out as a perfect whole.\u00a0 It will still taste good!<\/p>\n

Millet Reheating Tip<\/strong><\/h3>\n
In the meantime, here’s another quick tip:\u00a0 When reheating leftover millet, add a little moisture, e.g., sprinkle a few drops of water over the millet and cover before microwaving.\u00a0 While this technique is particularly helpful with millet, being a pretty dry grain, it does a nice job perking up any grain dish you reheat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
