You surprised me with this one ~ It's so simple, really: Just 2 ingredients, but when you toast the millet & then serve it with a bit of honey, THAT'S WONDERFUL, & we really enjoyed it! Did this up for two breakfasts in a row, serving one with a light, mild honey & the next one with a much darker, intense one & enjoyed them both ways! A great breakfast keeper!
