| These cacao-quinoa crispy cakes are Jenni Sherington's brilliant wholefood take on those rice-crispy nest we all used to make as children. |
We met Jenni Sherington at the Aldeburgh Food and Drink Festival, she was offering samples of her healthy versions of popular confectionery - they really were delicious - and as it turns out Jenni's new business, Sheringtons, is based just down the road from us in Halesworth.
We were very excited to see what Jenni was doing, turning the idea of a healthy snack on it's head and creating indulgent treats packed full of nutritious, wholesome ingredients. We could see that Jenni was bound to have lots of good ideas for our beans peas and quinoa so we gave her some samples to experiment with.
We weren't disappointed. Jenni came up with some fantastic recipes - all gluten free and with vegan options.
