Organic Ancient Grain with a Sweet and Nutty Flavor Good Source of Protein and Fiber Produced in a Dedicated Gluten- Free, Allergy-Friendly Facility Always Made Without: Dairy • Wheat • Soy • Nuts • Eggs Non GMO Project Verified USDA Organic Certified Gluten-Free Kosher There are grains, and then there's Amaranth. Along with buckwheat and quinoa, Amaranth is one of the few plant sources to offer a complete set of amino acids, making it a rare plant source of complete protein. It's naturally gluten-free and a good source of protein and fiber. Living Now™ Organic Amaranth is perfect for making gluten-free pasta, but should be combined with other grains/flours for baked goods since it has gluten and will not rise on its own. Amaranth has a mild flavor that's both sweet and nutty, and it's popular addition to many vegetarian recipes. Living Now is more than just a brand of great-tasting gluten-free foods - it's a way of life for anyone with food sensitivities. This premium line was developed to provide wholesome, healthy foods bursting with flavor and made without gluten and major common allergens including wheat, nuts, soy, dairy, eggs, and shellfish.
