Get your supplies from a bulk store (in paper bags, please) and mix and match to your heart’s desire. It will be cheaper and so much less wasteful than buying those small snack-size packets or plastic pouches wrapped in more plastic. Skip the fruit if you prefer and opt for raw, unsalted nuts. If you like a little salt, choose one kind of salted nuts and mix them in. A batch should last around four weeks.
Ingredients Makes 4 cups (1 serving = ⅛ cup)
- 1 cup walnuts
- 1 cup raw almonds
- 1 cup raw macadamia halves
- 1 cup Brazil nuts
- 3 tbsp pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
- 1 tbsp sunflower seeds
- 3 tbsp goji berries
- 1 tbsp dried cranberries
Method
Place all ingredients in a jar and mix well. Store in a cool dry place or in the fridge in the summer to prevent the oil in the nuts from going off. Scoop portions into reusable containers and enjoy on the go.
