Millet?!

[feathers1981]

Hi,

I am fairly new to Slimming World and still trying to get my head around it.

I use millet to make my porridge in the morning as I am a celiac (which means I can't eat wheat, gluten including normal oats). As millet is an oat I believe that its 'free'. But I had had normal oats I could only have had 28g as one 'a' selection. So can I have as much of my millet porridge as I want for breakfast? I normally have 60g as I have a 10k run before breakfast 3 times a week and it makes my really hungry!!!

Confused........

I menat to say that millet is a grain, not an oat!!!

Millet is a free grain and delicious too. I love it in savoury dishes.

If you are following extra easy, then theoretically your meals should include 1/3 superfree. So you might need to watch your intake of it, if you are not doing this.

It is a very healthy grain though.
