Fonio
Fonio is another type of tiny millet. It’s loaded with amino acids, particularly cystine – which your body uses to build your skin, hair, and nails. Light and fluffy when cooked, it’s often used in meatballs, as well as porridge. It’s gluten-free and has an earthy flavor, as well as a texture similar to couscous, which also makes it a good side dish.
