Small but mighty, seeds are the new (and affordable!) way to effortlessly up your fancy food game, while also sneakily packing in some essential nutrients. Grab your seed of choice — be it poppy, sesame, hemp, flax, or sunflower — and try out one of these ~luxe~ hacks.

1. Sprinkle them atop your avocado toast in the morning for bougie cafe vibes.

2. Scatter them across a smoothie and serve it in a bowl. Your influencer lifestyle awaits.

3. Mix them into a dip. Pair with veggies to upgrade an old and tired snack.

4. Layer them over a hummus on crackers for an easy but lavish app.

5. Roll them onto a banana coated in nut butter. VoilĂ : banana sushi.

6. Bestrew them across a dish of veggies and noods for a restaurant-worthy stir fry.

7. Use them to crust meat, fish, or cheese. Cheffing at its finest.

8. Bake them into pancakes or French toast for a novel take on brunch.

9. Stir them into a homemade (or store-bought) vinaigrette for a ~gourmet~ salad experience.

Bon appétit!
