Amaranth with Spinach Tomato Mushroom Sauce


Diet Types: gluten free, casein free, vegetarian

1 cup Nu-World Foods Amaranth seed
2-12 cups water
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 bunch spinach (or young amaranth leaves if available)
2 ripe tomatoes, skinned and coarsely chopped
1/2 lb. mushrooms, sliced
1-1/2 teaspoons basil
1-1/2 teaspoons oregano
1 clove of garlic minced
1 tablespoon onion, minced

Sea salt and pepper to taste (or use a salt substitute)

Add Nu-World Foods Amaranth seed to boiling water, bring back to boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 18-20 minutes.

While Nu-World Foods Amaranth seed is cooking, stem and wash spinach, then simmer until tender. Dip tomatoes into boiling water to loosen skin, then peel and chop. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat and add garlic and onion. Sauté approximately 2 minutes. Add tomato, mushrooms, basil, oregano, salt, pepper and 1 tablespoon of water. Drain and chop spinach and add to tomato mixture. Cook an additional 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Lightly mash tomato as it is cooking.

Stir the sauce into the Nu-World Foods Amaranth seed or spoon it on top.
