MILLETS
Millets are gluten-free, high in fiber, and contain many micronutrients, including calcium, iron, and phosphorus. They are also a good source of B vitamins, especially niacin and folic acid. Millets can help with blood sugar regulation, heart health, and reducing the risk of chronic diseases.
Millets are a nutritious, gluten-free grain that can be incorporated into your diet in many ways:
Breakfast
Make a hearty millet porridge or pudding with water or milk, and add fruit, nuts, or honey for flavor. You can also try millet-based breakfast cereals.
Salads
Add cooked and cooled millets for crunch. Kodo millet or little millet work well because they have a mild flavor and pleasant texture.
Soups and stews
Add millets for texture and nutrition. Millets absorb the flavors of the broth.
Baked goods
Use millet flour to make bread, pancakes, muffins, and cookies.
Stir-fries
Cook millets separately and then stir-fry with vegetables, tofu, or lean meats. Proso millet or pearl millet work well for stir-fries.
