Nuts & Seeds Combo

Use any combination of nuts & seeds that you want or that you have on hand. Overall, this recipe uses about 2.5 cups nuts & seeds that you can interchange.

Nutrition Tip

Nuts & seeds are incredibly nutrient-dense foods containing essential minerals (like magnesium, zinc, omega 3 fat and selenium) not easily found in other foods consumed. I recommend including 1-2 servings of nuts or seeds daily.

Works for Keto & Low Carb

Contains just 4 grams sugar per serving from the honey. Can also use powdered or liquid stevia instead.

Make Into Bars or Balls

Blend the mixture until small crumbs. For bars: press mixture into a glass dish and refrigerate. For balls: form balls with the mixture and refrigerate.
