Description
Organic Bee Pollen is a nutritious addition to whole food recipes.
Organic bee pollen is simply grains of nutrient rich pollen which bees collect from organic flowers. Bee keepers only collect a small amount of pollen, leaving the bees enough to thrive and produce honey.
It is a special product rich in nutrients, antioxidants and enzymes. Bee pollen contains all the essential amino acids which makes it a complete protein. It can be sprinkled onto porridge, yoghurt or added to smoothies.
If you want a quick easy recipe to get started with bee pollen then chop a range of fruits in a bowl and cover with coconut yoghurt. Sprinkle nuts, seeds and bee pollen on top for a super nutritious snack or meal replacement.
