CREAMY MILLET
The tall, stalk-like plants that millet comes from are lush, and in the field, the variety sometimes called broom corn millet resembles acre after acre of swaying pussy willows. Whole millet looks a lot like quinoa, and also like quinoa it's both gluten free and a great protein source. It cooks up plump and creamy in this recipe, and with the compote and almonds, it makes for a delightful breakfast or anytime pick-me-up.

- Serve topped with the blueberry compote and almonds.
- Add 1/2 cup dried cranberries and 1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut to the cooked millet.

- When it comes to which fruits have the most antioxidants, integrative oncologist Donald Abrams says intensity of color is often a tip-off: "Among fruits, the heavily pigmented fruits, particularly berries, are rich in antioxidants and phytonutrients that are beneficial to all people, but especially to patients with cancer." As for concerns that eating antioxidants might interfere with treatments that depend upon creating oxidation to knock out cancer cells, Abrams says a little perspective is in order: "I say let's be realistic here. If it comes down to a blueberry versus that beam of radiation, I don't think there's a real chance that the blueberry is going to win." Meaning if you want a blueberry, nosh away.

Steps:
- Lightly toast millet over medium heat until it smells nutty (about 2 minutes).
- Add milk and water, bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for around 25 minutes, until most or all liquid is absorbed.
- Meanwhile place cream and white sugar into a small bowl and whisk until frothy or you can put in a jar and shake.
- Add brown sugar and maple syrup when the cereal is cooked to your desired consistency and stir to combine, transfer to a bowl.
- Pour frothy cream over the top and enjoy!
- Tips: I also like to add a little butter, nutmeg, and cinnamon or you can use white sugar, skip the maple and add fresh berries (or any fresh fruit), strawberries and cream millet sounds just as yummy :D.
