We present to you, in collaboration with our friends Maya Kaimal Foods: Fonio + Everyday Dal Crackers! These easy-to-make crackers are packed with plant-based protein, fiber, and good fats. The nuttiness of Yolélé fonio complements the savory and tartness of kidney bean + carrot + tamarind Everyday Dal. Use them as a dip for hummus, the “toast” for avocados, or simply eat them as is. Make a big batch and keep in airtight containers for a nutritious snack on the go (or the trappings of a not-sad-desk-lunch).
