Mediterranean Bowl

Whole grain sorghum — a plant-based protein — is not only delicious but also versatile. It can be used like other grains, such as rice, quinoa and barley, in main dishes or as a side dish. You can easily cook sorghum on the stovetop, in a slow cooker, rice cooker or an oven. Or pop it for a snack!
