Feel free to use a combination of Amaranth and other whole grains, which would give this dish a complete amino acid profile. Amaranth is a highly nutritious grain, with a protein complex that rivals animal products, while also containing more calcium than milk.

To put it simply, this recipe could not be easier.

Amaranth is an incredibly nutritious grain which was held sacred by the Aztecs. It is a gluten-free grain, because it is actually related to grass. This is a basic recipe for preparing plain amaranth. You can mix in whatever you would like to this.

Pizzocheri is a dish of the Valtellina Valley in Piemonte, Italy that is made up of buckwheat tagliatelle that are cooked with cabbage and potatoes, and then served with bitto cheese, and melted sage butter. Here we use the buckwheat grain in its whole form, and add some crunchy apples and healthy Tuscan kale to the mix. We also use fontina cheese, as bitto is difficult to find in the United States.
