These superfood sprinkles are perfect for topping smoothies bowls, sprinkling over yogurt, and yes occasionally shoveling straight into your mouth. They’re packed full of healthy fats, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and all kinds of good stuff your body needs.
And because I also love efficiency, instead of opening 12 different jars every morning, you can just mix up a batch of these sprinkles and enjoy a few spoonfuls during the day. Like a multivitamin, but without having to swallow a pill or steal your kids gummies!
