Favourite Things Friday Vol 71 – Hemp Hearts

I might be a little late to the party because I only discovered Hemp Hearts this week, but man I am so glad I did!



My in house taste tester picked up a bag at the grocery store the other day because he was curious about them. I was talking to my sister that same day and she told me they are great and she eats them all the time.



They have a ton of protein in them and a lot of other vitamins and minerals. You can check out Wikipedia for more info cause I am no nutrition expert.

They have a really light kind of nutty grassy flavor, they are good on their own, or you could blend them into a smoothie.

How about sprinkle them on a salad.


Or sprinkle them on some yogurt and banana. This is my new favourite snack!



If you haven’t tried them pick some up and give them a whirl!

Have a fantastic weekend‼

By the way the Manitoba Hemp Heart people don’t know who I am; they are just my current obsession!
