Top it off with your favorite fruits, nuts, and a sprinkle of Ceylon cinnamon for a delightful morning treat. But did you know that amaranth is not only ancient but also incredibly nutritious? It’s nature’s perfect blend of protein and starch! My first taste of this remarkable grain was @eattolive_retreat with @joelfuhrmanmd, and I’ve been obsessed ever since. Here’s the scoop: Amaranth is loaded with proteins, including essential amino acids like lysine, which are rare in many other grains like corn and rice. One cup of cooked amaranth serves up a hearty 9 grams of protein and 5 grams of fiber. And there’s more! Amaranth boasts over four times more calcium than wheat—153 mg compared to wheat’s 34 mg—covering 12% of your daily calcium needs. Plus, it’s a powerhouse of other minerals like iron, magnesium, phosphorus, and manganese. Add in B vitamins, and vitamins C and E, and you’ve got a nutrient goldmine!
