Ingredients

1 cup Nutiva Organic Shelled Hempseed
1 tablespoon mesquite pod meal
1 teaspoon vanilla
3-4 cup pure water

Directions

Combine hemp, mesquite, vanilla and ½ of the water in blender. Blend until mixture begins to get creamy and smooth. Slowly add remaining water, blend another moment, and serve. Great as a smoothie base, excellent over granola, hot or cold cereal, grated or sliced apples or selected fresh fruit. The fiber, Omega 3 fatty acids and protein in this mix puts it into the power food category, this to be a life sustaining mix! Mesquite pod meal is a fabulous thickener. It can replace an egg in a recipe for pancakes, waffles or quick breads. Try using it to replace half the sugar in a cookie recipe, or to sprinkle as a topping instead of brown sugar. Amazing unique sweet flavor!
