This recipe was inspired by amaranth, a whole-grain, gluten free staple unique to the Aztecs. It contains all of the essential amino acids, including lysine, which is lacking in most grains. Amaranth is a complete protein and is extremely versatile! It adds protein and texture to this delicious baked dish.
