Amaranth

SEED

This psuedograin with tiny, nutty seeds has been utilised for millenia. They can subsitute for a number of other grains (while also being gluten-free), often being harnessed in both deserts or more fresh savory dishes.

Amaranth includes a good quantity of manganese and small amounts of other minerals. Along with this, it has a number of phytonutrients with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, plus good fiber and protein content.
