Light lunch that is quick to make!

When I struggle with digestion problems I like to cook meals that are not going to feel heavy in my stomach. Soft creamy millet is a great option just for that.

I like to make mine on the wetter side, cause I rarely enjoy dry millet.

One of my favorite things about millet is that it is a whole grain that takes very little time to cook! I cook mine for 30 minutes and done!
