This snack mix is packed with nutrition and healthy fats from the many nuts and seeds. Plus the freeze-dried blueberries add a tangy, fruity flavor to the mix!
This recipe includes superfoods such as:
Sunflower seeds are an excellent food for PCOS as they are packed with vitamin B2 (riboflavin) and vitamin B6 (pyridoxine). Just one cup of sunflower seeds provides 30% of the recommended daily intake for vitamin B6. Sunflower seeds are also loaded with two other important of PCOS busting minerals: zinc and magnesium. Sesame seeds help with progesterone balance. Lignans found in in sesame seeds help to prevent excess estrogen production.
2 tablespoons Splenda Brown Sugar Blend
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 cup raw, unsalted pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
1 cup unsalted sunflower seeds
1 cup unsalted slivered almonds
¼ cup sesame seeds
Cooking Spray
1.2 ounce bag freeze dried blueberries
Preheat an oven to 300 degrees.
Coat a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
In a bowl, combine Splenda Brown Sugar, cayenne pepper, pumkin seeds, sunflower seeds, almonds and sesame seeds and toss to coat.
Spread mixture onto the baking sheet and then spray again with a coating of cooking spray.
Bake for 15 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes to ensure even browning.
Remove from oven and set aside to cool. When cool, toss nut mixture in a bowl with the freeze dried blueberries.
Chef Tip: Be sure you are buying freeze dried blueberries, not just regular dried blueberries. The freeze dried are very different nutritionally and are crisp instead of chewy.
MAKE IT GLUTEN-FREE: Verify that the ingredients that you use are gluten-free and this dish can be gluten-free.
