Categories     Low Protein

Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup amaranth, seed
2 1/2 cups water
1 bunch spinach
2 ripe tomatoes, skinned and coarsely chopped
1/2 lb mushroom, sliced
1 1/2 teaspoons oregano
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tablespoon onion, minced
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Boil the water and add amaranth, bring back to boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 18-20 minutes.
  • Wash spinach, then simmer until tender.
  • Blanch tomatoes to remove skin if desired then peel and chop [I leave the skin on]
  • Heat a skillet over medium heat and add garlic and onion with a bit of broth [or oil]. Saute about 2 minutes then add tomato, mushrooms, basil, oregano, salt [Or Dash], pepper and 1 tablespoon of water.
  • Drain and chop spinch and add to tomato mixture cooking for 10 to 15 minutes stirring occasionally. Stir so that you mush the tomato up a bit if desired [I sometimes leave it a bit chunky].
  • Stir the sauce into the amaranth or spoon it on top.
  • Notes: I use Mrs Dash Tomato and Garlic blend the most. Amaranth leaves can be used in place of spinach if you can find them.

This dish was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less salt next time.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for me. I think I'll use less chili peppers next time.

The amaranth was a bit too chewy for me. I think I'll try cooking it for a shorter amount of time next time.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and herbs to give it more flavor.

I've never cooked with amaranth before, but this recipe was easy to follow and turned out great. The amaranth had a nice nutty flavor and the tomato sauce was delicious. I'll definitely be making this again.

This amaranth dish was a hit with my family! The tomato sauce was flavorful and tangy, and the amaranth was cooked perfectly. It was a great way to get my kids to eat their veggies.
