 Don't try this unless you like your chili spicey!  I made it last night:
  
 Spicy Fatfree Chili
 
 1 cup uncooked hard wheat berries
 2 onions chopped
 2 cups cooked pinto beans
 3 Tablespoons (approx) cinnamon
 1/4 cup (approx) chili powder
 1 16 oz. jar picante sauce
 2 14.5 oz. cans chili tomatoes
 1 4.5 oz. can green chilis
 1 7 oz. can jalapeno relish
 
 Cook the wheat berries in 2.5 cups of water (it will take about an hour).
 Combine the remaining ingredients and simmer while the wheat berries are
 cooking.   Add the wheat berries when they are done and enjoy!
 
 If the wheat berries do not absorb all the water, drain them before adding
 to the chili.  They should be a little chewy.  I didn't measure the cinnamon
 or chili powder;  the measurements should be close though.  The pinto beans
 were fresh.
