New Zealand Hemp Seeds for Dessert
During Covid 19 Level 4, sister Milly was busy creating delicious, plant based recipes utilising The Brothers Green products. This one is a definite must-try.
"Living in Tairua I am pretty stumped for choice at the local Four Square for ingredients. Thankfully I came across the last packet of chia seeds, a super nutritious and versatile super food that goes hand in hand with The Brothers Green hemp seeds like a super seed marriage. This recipe is inspired by my love for all things sweet and my lack of access to my favourite Duck Island Ice Cream (shout out to you lockdown). This creamy chocolate hemp mousse is an epic dessert, snack or even breakfast (because #treatyourself). I hope you enjoy this recipe, we definitely did."
