Bottom line? Your guests’ bellies will be happy while you feel good knowing that you’re nourishing them well.

Millet has a very delicate flavor and is easy to prepare, making it a very versatile grain that can be made into a breakfast cereal, grain bowl, bread (using millet flour), and tossed in a salad, like this Thai-inspired delight.

This meal is a great example of how you can optimize plant-based nutrition in a salad. As you probably know, you can get lots of protein from nuts and seeds.

Tahini has almost 3 grams of protein per tablespoon plus calcium, copper and selenium. Amaranth is a pseudograin with more protein than any other grain at 9 grams per cooked cup. And, kale has boatloads of other nutrients like beta carotene, iron, and calcium. This salad is nourishing and satisfying!

Fun fact about buckwheat: It’s actually a cousin of rhubarb, so not technically a grain at all. But its nutrients, nutty flavor, and appearance have allowed it to be classified as a grain. Buckwheat bonus: It also has adequate amounts of all nine essential amino acids.
