Cinnamon Amaranth Grits
Amaranth is another of the ancient grains, and was a staple food of the Aztec Indians. It is exceptionally high in protein and calcium, and is strengthening to the lungs. If you find the flavor of amaranth alone to be too intense, try mixing it with rice, steel cut oats, or cracked wheat.

Whole Grain Pancakes
These pancakes are nutrient dense and far superior to their white flour cousins, traditional flapjacks. Whole grain flour is heavier than white, and may be an acquired taste, but most people (including kids) will adapt to eating these pretty readily. Serve with maple syrup, fruit-only preserves, or agave nectar.
