Sorghum

A “newer” grain in that it is only about 4,000 years old, sorghum is super popular in North America. One of the reasons for this is that it is consumed by humans but is also used to feed livestock.

High in carbohydrates and healthy fat as well as other nutrients; sorghum is also chock full of vitamins and minerals including copper and iron. A great wheat alternative for baking when in its flour form, when cooked as a whole grain its flavor is much more nutty and chewy. It can also be made into a popcorn type snack when popped.
