If ever there was a 'superfood' to get familiar with, this would probably be it. Super versatile and jam packed with health benefits!
Hemp seeds are incredibly rich in omega-6, omega-3, vitamin E and iron + they are bursting with high quality protein! In fact, just like quinoa, hemp seeds are considered a complete protein source, which means they provide all the essential amino acids your body needs from your diet. Imagine that. So much goodness in such a tiny seed.
What makes the story even more beautiful is that with their mild, nutty flavour, you can use these seeds in pretty much anything!
Tip #1 - Pop them in your smoothie
You would never know they were in there in the first place!
Tip #2 - Sprinkle them on your salad
It will make any salad look slightly more 'pro' and taste wise you will hardly notice them.
Tip #3 - Make your own granola
If you're making your own granola anyway, why not pop some of these little miracles in there and make the batch even more nutritious?
Tip #4 - Soup
Yup! Either blend the seeds in there or garnish to make your soup look even more inviting.
Tip #5 - Dough
Pizza dough, rolls, bread. They work for all of it, so go crazy.
Get creative!
Really, you can use these little things in practically anything. There's not excuse to not have these at hand.
