  Five Super Seeds Cookies

  I discovered this gem when looking for recipes to use up leftover seeds/millet etc. when moving from Sydney back to WA late last year. The darn quarantine laws had us looking at throwing out roughly $100 of perfectly adequate nuts and the like. As if that was going to happen!

It looks like spindly black spider legs, however it’s far from harmful. Quite the opposite in fact. I promise.   Continue reading →
