I like to start the day off with a great big spoonful of Hemp Hearts to help kick off my protein intake for the day. They’ve got 10 grams of protein in a 3-tablespoon serving! But I don’t stop there. I really love the cool little seeds for their taste and texture in so many recipes. Here’s my newest creation … vegan spinach and hemp seed pesto! It tastes luscious, but provides fewer calories than the original (if that’s your goal!). It’s 100% plant-based, too. But if you’re a little bit more of a traditionalist, you can just stir a little bit of grated vegan Parmesan-style cheese into the finished pesto recipe.
