Preparation
- Step 1
In a nonstick saucepan beat the egg whites slightly; then spoon off and discard about a teaspoon.
- Step 2
Mix kasha with the remaining whites. Stir frequently over medium heat until each grain is separate and dry.
- Step 3
Push kasha to one side of the pan and add oil to the pan. When it is hot, add celery and onion and saute over medium heat a few minutes until onion begins to soften and brown.
- Step 4
Add chicken stock; combine ingredients in the pan and season with salt and pepper. Reduce heat; cover pan and simmer about 15 minutes, until kasha is tender. Stir almonds into kasha.

This was good, quick and easy. I omitted the cheese. Next time, I think I’ll add carrots. I wish there were more kasha recipes as it is a terrific grain.
