Millet Sesame Porridge with Miso Carrot & Leek

Millet is certainly a must on your fall and winter menu dear kapha. It’s has the qualities of Sweet, Heating, Dry and Light making it an excellent choice for people who have celiac disease or who follow a gluten free diet.

I don’t know about you but I love the look of these tiny golden pearls. And I know they are good as they are packed with protein, antioxidants, and nutrients. They have numerous health benefits, such as helping lower your blood sugar and cholesterol levels and they taste great when the right spices are added to cooking them.

Like quinoa and oats they are gluten-free, warming and great in the morning. I find this grain even lighter to digest than oats, yet really satisfying my appetite right till lunch. After making this once you will be hooked on millet porridge when you want a savoury breakfast.
