Cook the green spelt according to the package instructions. Thaw the frozen peas. Clean and chop the lettuce and bell peppers. Peel and finely dice the onions. Sauté the onions in olive oil in a pan, add the peas, bell peppers, and lettuce, and sauté briefly. Add the green spelt, pour in the stock, and bring to a boil briefly. Done. Season to taste with salt, pepper, and nutmeg and serve garnished with fresh herbs. If you’re garnishing with cress, you can also season with ground caraway. Alternatively, the recipe works well with semi-sweet wheat instead of green spelt.
