Millet is actually seed (like quinoa and buckwheat) which packs a nutritional punch and is 100% gluten free. It doubles in size so for females I recommend 1\/4 cup which will make 1\/2 a cup, and for males I recommend 1\/2 cup which will make 1 cup.<\/p>\n
Millet is a good source of some B-vitamins, and some minerals such as magnesium, zinc, copper, phosphorus, manganese. Furthermore, it’s also contains 6gms of protein per cup and is a good source of fiber. I like to pair the millet with chia seeds for extra fibre, coconut oil for a healthy fat source, maca powder for hormonal health and energy and protein to help stablize my blood sugar levels.<\/h2>\n
Add millet, milk, chia seeds, coconut oil, and protein into a small saucepan and heat over medium heat for 10 minutes, stirring regularly. After 10 minutes turn the heat down so that the porridge simmers for 5 minutes, stirring regularly. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
If you use frozen berries (which is what I use in winter) add them to the porridge in the last 3-4 minutes to slightly warm them, alternatively you can heat them in a separate saucepan over medium heat, then add them to the top of the porridge.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
I often like to add a dash or two of almond milk to the pan in the last couple of minutes and stir it around again before pouring the porridge into a bowl. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
Once ready pour the porridge into a bowl and add your favourite toppings.<\/p>\n
Enjoy! <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1121,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","yoast_head":"\n
