Wheat and Bean Salsa

1 green pepper, finely diced
1 orange or red pepper, finely diced
1 small red onion, finely diced
1 small bunch cilantro, finely chopped
Juice of 1 lime
3 cups cooked wheat (wheat berries)
1 can corn, drained
1 can black beans, drained
2 tsp. chili powder
2 tsp. cumin powder
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1 Tbs. sugar
1/2 cup olive oil
1 tsp salt

Cook wheat in a slow cooker overnight; 3 cups to 10 cups water. Drain wheat, corn and beans. zplace all ingredients in large bowl and toss well. Chill for an hour before serving. Can be served alone as a salad or with chorn chips as a salsa

Note: 3 cups of wheat kernels cooked in 10 cups of water make about 7 cups of cooked wheat.You can add wheat berries to just about anything. They make a great hamburger extender. I also like to just put a little sugar and milk on them and eat them for breakfast.
