Notes

Trilogy Health Seeds. This includes a combination of flax, chia, and hemp seeds. They are healthy and work well in this recipe. In fact, you won’t even notice they are there! If you can't find the trilogy, you can substitute flax seeds, chia seeds, hemp, sunflower seeds, or even pumpkin seeds.
