What to do with bee pollen?

Any recipe ideas?





I got a jar from my favorite local organic farmer, but I really don't know what to do with it. I heard you can put it in smoothies but I was looking for something a little more... exciting.





Thanks everyone!

What to do with bee pollen?
I used to keep bees many years ago (1,000 colonies, hives) and I ate bee pollen by the table spoon plain without anything. I love the flavor. You can add it to anything you like as long as there is no heat added to what ever you are adding it too. No heat means nothing warm or hot. the heat destroys the natural properties of the pollen. Raw pollen should be consumed as it is, raw. The easiest way to eat it is to mix it with honey if you don't like it plain. Mix only what you will eat at one time. Use 1 Tbs. honey to 1 Tbs. pollen.
Reply:Bee Pollen is a SUPER food it can be used many ways. I use it in Smoothies( not too exciting.) add it to fruit Juice, I have heard of Warm Popcorn being tossed with it. I have always heard you shoudn't warm it too much.


Here is a Organic Veggie Site re:Bee Pollen %26amp; recipes. Glad you asked the question, now I'll look at other ways to use my Bee Pollen too. Thanks.

Reply:Stir powdered granules into vegetable juices, or even into water sweetened with raw honey. Whirl the powder into salad dressings. Sprinkle whole or powdered granules on toast topped with peanut butter......
