All About Ancient Grains!

This week we’re featuring hearty, nourishing ancient grains. These pantry mainstays are full of texture and perfect for batch-cooking, ideal for assembling meals throughout the week. We start out with crispy fritters, move onto warm grain bowls and then ease into the weekend with a creamy alternative to oatmeal.
