1 teaspoon vanilla extract

*Amaranth is an ancient grain that is actually considered a complete protein because it contains all the essential amino acids our body needs. It is also a great source of vitamins and minerals — especially calcium and iron. It’s also jam-packed with fiber: one cup of uncooked amaranth has 13 grams of dietary fiber.
