ROLLED OATS WITH AMARANTH SEEDS, MAPLE SYRUP AND APPLE
Grated apple adds a fresh, zesty dimension to just about any bowl of hot (or cold) cereal. The little amaranth seeds contribute protein, lysine and calcium to this mix. They will soften overnight, but they retain texture, which is one of the things I like about the combo.

Steps:
- Stir together oats, amaranth seeds, salt and raisins in a medium-size microwave-proof bowl. Bring 2/3 cup water to a boil and pour over mixture. Add maple syrup and stir together, then cover bowl with a plate and leave it out on the counter overnight. (You can refrigerate if you prefer.)
- In the morning, place bowl (still covered by the plate) in the microwave and cook for 2 minutes on 100 percent power. Remove from the microwave and very carefully remove plate from top of bowl. (Bowl will be hot, and steam will rise from cereal.) Stir the mixture. If it is not yet thick, cover again and return to microwave. Cook 1 to 2 minutes longer, until the mixture is no longer watery.
- Transfer to a serving dish. Coarsely grate apple over cereal and stir in. Drizzle on more maple syrup and, if desired, add a little milk, and walnuts or almonds.
