SEED INSPIRATION
Seeds make a great addition to your diet. They are rich in omega oils, vitamins and minerals, which are essential for a happy, healthy body!
Many people add seeds to smoothies or to trail mix, but there are many more ways you can incorporate seeds into your diet! Seeds can be used whole, crushed, as a paste, and of course, as a pure seed oil.
Here we have ten lovely recipes that contain seeds!
