Hemp seeds are a very healthy source of protein for vegetarians and are a simple superfood to include in any healthy diet. Browse through a few of these vegetarian and mostly vegan hempseed recipes and enjoy all those healthy hemp amino acids and essential fatty acids!

Breakfast Ideas Using Hemp Seeds

My favorite way to have hemp seeds for breakfast is to just sprinkle some into whatever cereal, granola or whole grain (I love having quinoa or quinoa flakes for breakfast) I'm having for breakfast. Another simple way to get some of those tasty crunchy omega-3 filled hemp seeds for breakfast is to sprinkle them on toast. They're fantastic on toast with peanut butter (or soy nut butter or almond butter or whatever you use), and I love having toast with a little Earth Balance vegan margarine and a sprinkle of nutritional yeast and hemp seeds for a quick breakfast. It may sound odd, but don't knock it till you try it! Here's a few more healthy vegetarian and vegan breakfast recipe ideas to have hemp seeds for breakfast:
