When I'm hungry for lunch, or dinner, or just home-alone, and urgently want something that's nutritious, filling and tasty to eat, this is my go-to food. A tray of them in the larder is essential for daily use and for a survival store. It's a meal for one, or add a bit of water to make 2 bowls of soup. Add some creamed coconut or coconut oil to make it richer. Perfect!
Why wouldn't you want wonderfully tasting green pancakes? We also alternate green and yellow blinis for canapés. You can of course make them even greener with a couple of leaves of fresh spinach wizzed into the batter.
All the peas is a nice mix for sprouting for a tasty and healthy snack or addition to salads. Soak in water, drain when fully expanded, rinse twice daily, then sprinkle on salads or like me, just eat a mouthful each time you walk past.
Absolutely loved it
loved it! - The texture was so interesting and the grains really took up the flavour of the spices. Really recommend and will be buying more
