I love grains and try to eat them often. Most of them are healthy and nutritious, especially the whole grains. They are also very versatile in preparation. The most familiar is long-grain white rice, but don't limit your choices. Brown rice has more nutrition. Short-grain rice makes great risotto, paella or creamy desserts. Wild rice, which is actually a grass, has a wonderful nutty flavor. Polenta, which is cornmeal, is highly flavorful. Barley, kasha, bulgur and quinoa are just a few examples of grains that offer valuable nutrints to the diet, not to mention a variety of taste sensations. You don't have to be a "health nut" to love grains, and they are becoming more readily available in the average supermarket. I have many more to try, but you can try a few from my current list. Use your own ideas and have fun!
