Amaranth (Amaranthus Viridis) is an ancient grain really similar to quinoa and a staple of the ancient Aztec diet with many different benefits!
It’s considered a super food with high protein, gluten free, fiber and much more! It is extremely easy to grow in the garden and I usually interplanted it in my tomato bed or with courgette and peppers!
