Amaranth

Amaranth is gluten-free and highly nutritious. Amaranth contains more protein than any other gluten-free grain. It is also a good source of dietary fiber, iron and magnesium.

1 cup = 28.1 grams of protein.

You can toast amaranth and add to cereal for that extra crunch or add it to a muffin reciepe. You can cook amaranth 1:3 with water, bring to a boil and simmer for about 20 min. add some maple syrup, cinammon, walnuts or molasses with pear slices and eat for breakfast. Boil Amaranth with stock and ginger root and eat with a a rainbow of vegetables or add to salads.

Amaranth is very strengthening to the lungs, a good detox food. Also, amaranth has more calcium and magnesium than cow's milk! boo to moo!

Variety = Abunance of Nutrients

love, love
