Ingredients

• 3 cups water
• 2 tablespoons amaranth grain
• 2 tablespoons millet
• 2 tablespoons rye flakes
• 2 tablespoons cracked wheat
• 2 tablespoons steel cut oats
• 2 tablespoons flax seeds
• 1/3 cup dried apricot, chopped
• 1/3 cup raw almonds, chopped

Recipe

• 1 the grains need to equal 1 cup, so i used heaping tablespoons. the flaxseeds are in addition to the 1 cup. you can use any dried fruit and nuts you like and any combination of grains as long as the grain to water ratio is 1:3. next time i make it, i think i'm going to try adding brown rice and quinoa into the mix. i'm also thinking of grinding the grains in the blender to make more of a creamy cereal, but i honestly don't know it that will work or not.
• 2 boil water. stir in grains and flaxseeds. cover and simmer for 25 minutes, stirring occasionally. stir in fruit and nuts. cover and continue to cook for 15 minutes. serve with a little soy milk and your good to go! store leftovers in the fridge.
• 3 enjoy!
