Includes bibliographical references and index.

"Chia, hemp, flax, quinoa, and amaranth are tiny powerhouses that are considered some of nature's perfect foods. Hemp, for example, delivers a whopping 5 grams of protein in a two-tablespoon serving--a true super food that provides a perfect balance of Omega-3 and Omega-6 essential fatty acids in each serving, making hemp a superb addition to vegan and vegetarian diets. All five of the super seeds featured in this hardworking book take a star turn in 75 delicious recipes, both savory and sweet. You'll discover how versatile these tiny seeds really are, and how easy it is to use them in everything you make, from muffins, breads, and salads to soups, mains, and desserts. Super seeds like chia, quinoa, flax, amaranth, and hemp are now easy to find, making it convenient for home cooks to enrich meals in a non-threatening way, while delighting the palate and giving old favorites a fresh, healthy spin. The book delivers plenty of solid, nutritional information about super seeds, along with interesting trivia and tips, particularly in the area of ingredient substitution. These super seeds are gluten-free, too!"--From publisher.
