Munchy Seeds are a company focused on celebrating the benefits that a range of delicious seeds can provide for us - and they really don’t disappoint! These little packets of joy were a delight to receive this week and were quickly put to the test by the whole team. We got to try out four of the flavours ranging from sweet to savoury, and all were thoroughly enjoyed across the office.

We tried the Honey Roasted, Warm Cinnamon and Salted Caramel snack packs. All three of these are suitable for vegetarians and coeliacs, with the Warm Cinnamon and Salted Caramel packs also being vegan. Each of these three varieties is packed full of deliciously roasted pumpkin and sunflower seeds with either a honey coating, a warm cinnamon coating or an equally delectable, salted caramel coating. These were a real hit in the office, with many commenting that they would make a great addition to porridge or yoghurt as a granola-esque style of topping for a little added crunch, and I have to say I agree! I added some to my breakfast yoghurt and fruit and it was delicious. 

The sweet options make a great addition to your lunch, to top off your breakfast or even a post-gym treat as they are packed with protein and fibre. Munchy Seeds boasts no artificial colourings, flavourings, and preservatives, and even their pouches are good for the planet as all the packaging is recyclable.

However, the Mega Omega snack pack is the winner without a doubt office-wide! The Mega Omega pack includes a mix of 7 seeds in a salty tamari flavour. The mix includes sunflower, pumpkin, hulled hemp and sesame seeds, alongside rapeseed as well as golden and brown linseeds. The Mega Omega variety is, as the name suggests, high in omega 3 – providing a great source of fibre, protein, omega 3 and vitamin all in one little pouch. The savoury style is recommended for sprinkling over casseroles, salads, soups or even just on buttered bread. I saw on the Munchy Seed website a range of recipes for all the different seeds which looked great, but the smashed avocado on toast with the Mega Omega seed mix sprinkled over will definitely have to be tried!

Overall, the Munchy Seed snack packs are a great treat and were a hit with everyone in the office. If you are looking for changing your snacking habits and want to introduce some delicious but high in protein and fibre choices, these are a great pick!

Pros:

- High in fibre and protein

- Recyclable packaging

- Range of flavour choices
