This looks delicious, but the photo really looks like it’s made with sesame seeds. Could it be?

Thanks for the catch, Eleanor! I’ve made this salad with both sunflower seeds and sesame seeds, and it appears as though in this photo op I used sesame seeds. Please let me know if you have any of your own recipes to share with the Local Food Journey!
