They are also full of phytochemicals, which are good for you, and contain both insoluble and soluble fiber.
Steel cut oats are made by taking the oat groats and cutting them into 2 to 3 smaller pieces using a steel blade. Steel cut oats are also sometimes called Irish oats. Steel cut oats are also more coarse than other types of oats and tend to be chewier. This gives them a hearty texture that is very filling, but it does mean they require longer soaking and cooking times. However, they are still good to use in an overnight oats recipe.

Organic Kale Powder, Canada
As one would assume from the name, kale powder is a dried and smashed form of the fresh leaves. These leaves are generally harvested at optimal ripeness, then air or freeze dried until they are brittle enough to be gently broken and pulverized into dust.
Powdered Kale is much more concentrated of a form than the fresh wavy leaves since the water weight has been removed, packing the power of a cup of fresh kale into about a serving of four teaspoons – making it far more nutritionally dense than fresh kale and easier to digest. That same serving has more iron than beef per calorie, and more calcium than a cup of milk.

Organic Sifted Rye Flour, True Grain

Rye is an intensely flavourful grain that can be described as the secret ingredient to crafting truly amazing bread. Rye is related to wheat and has been a staple of North and Western European diets for centuries. Our Rye is organic and is proudly grown in BC. We slowly stone grind and sift our Rye at low temperature to maximize flavour and preserve nutrients. Rye is a healthy choice because of its gluten structure and high proportion of soluble fibre. “Sifted” simply means we remove the bran. Substitute sifted rye for a portion of “white flour” in your recipes. Thank you for supporting organic BC Farmers and Millers.
