Healthy seed mix

Jump to recipe

We now know that good fats are essential for a healthy diet, and this moreish mix is a great way to get a balanced combination of omega 3, 6 and 9 into your diet, as well as loads of trace nutrients and fibre. I use it to enrich my baking, add to my porridge or pancakes, or to scatter into my crumble toppings. It’s also great on top of smoothies or yoghurt and, because it’s been blitzed together, is easier to digest.

Lucy & the family
A family story, rooted in gluten-free cooking

Lucy’s coeliac diagnosis changed the way the family cooked and ate. Reading labels, choosing ingredients carefully and preparing meals from scratch became second nature.

These recipes reflect our family’s love of natural, minimally processed ingredients and food to enjoy together, including recipes from our two coconut oil cookbooks.
