SC - European Grain/Legume combo?

[Konstanza von Brunnenburg]

Greetings!

I'm sure that this subject has been beaten to death, but darn it, I can't
find any archives of the sca-cooks list to search.  Plus, I'm new to A&S
circles, so I don't know a lot of the "givens" that so many of you take for
granted.  So please bear with me! 

I am searching for any documented European dish that combined a grain (i.e.
cereal grass) product with a legume (e.g. beans, peas) product  -- the
trusty vegetarian "complete protein" combo.  So far I've only found this in
a couple of  Arabic recipes -- Caradoc's translations of "Khichri" and
"Counterfeit (Vegetarian) Isfî riyâ of Garbanzos".  I'd like to try
substituting a grain/legume combo for meat in appropriate European recipes,
and it would be great to be able to somehow *document* that a grain/legume
combination was at least actually used in Period in (for example) England
or Germany.  (Extra points for grain/legume documented as a Lenten
substitute!)

The reason documentation is important to me is that I'm my shire's new A&S
Minister and I'd like to participate (and thereby encourage participation)
in Prinicipality and Kingdom cooking contests.
 
Many thanks for any assistance on this matter!


In Service,

Konstanza
