Born as a food truck in Boulder, Colorado, husband and wife duo Ryan and Lindsey Cunningham are taking nostalgic comfort food, and giving it a vegan twist. RollinGreens originated back in 1980. The Cunningham family had Boulder’s first organic and local food truck on the scene. In 2011, Ryan and Lindsey revitalized the truck. After five years and lines around the corner for their Millet Tots, the pair knew they were on to something.
They launched their Millet Tots. Millet Tots are the only non-potato whole grain, tot on the market. These crispy bites are vegan and gluten-free, and are allergen friendly. You’re probably thinking what’s Millet, right?! Millet is one of those ancient grains that is so nutrient-rich, but very underutilized. This sustainable grain requires minimal water to grow, and Colorado supplies over half the U.S millet. You can find this delicious side, in over 1,000 retailers throughout the U.S. Go to their website for a location near you.

Bake Original Millet Tots at 375F for about 15 minutes or until crispy. While the tots are baking, mix 1 tablespoon Horseradish to 2 tablespoons Kite Hill plain spread. Cut Portobello Mushroom into ½ inch slices. In Cast Iron Pan on Medium heat, add oil of choice, mushrooms, salt and pepper aggressively. Once golden brown, set aside to let cool. Shred Mushrooms with two forks. Place on lined cookie sheet and add your choice of B.B.Q. sauce and bake for 15 minutes at 400 degrees. Add one more layer of sauce and broil for a few minutes.
