Ingredients
1 cup amaranth3 cups plain soy milk1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamonsea salt [a pinch, if desired]1 large apple, skin on, cored and diced1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Directions
Place the amaranth, soy milk, cinnamon, salt [if using], and apple in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boi, sirring frequently. Cover pan and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 25 - 30 minutes until amaranth is soft. Top with chopped walnuts and serve.

Chef Tip: Rinsing and soaking grains such as amaranth for a few hours before or overnight will help reduce cooking time. To save time in the morning, you can compbine all the ingredients except the walnuts in a covered sauce pan the night before, storie in your refrigerator, and cook in the morning. Store leftover grain in a tightly covered glass bowl and freeze for a busy morning. Thaw the night before in the fridge. Reheat on the stove top.

Makes four 2/3 cup servings.
