PROTEIN POWER MIXED NUTS MIX
Ingredients for 6 servings
- 1 cup frozen shelled edamame, completely thawed
- 1 teaspoon olive oil (RECOMMENDED: avocado, grapeseed or coconut oil)
- pinch of sea salt
- 1/3 cup pepitas, raw
- 1 1/3 cups unsalted roasted peanuts
- 1/2 cup unsalted cashews, roasted
- 1/3 cup dried cranberries
- sea salt & pepper to taste
Steps
Step 1
Set oven to 350F.
Step 2
Pat the edamame completely dry and leave them to rest on a separate dry towel for at least 1 hour at room temperature. Add the edamame to a bowl along with olive oil and pinch of sea salt. Toss to combine.
Step 3
Spread the edamame on a baking tray lined with parchment OR a porcelain/glass baking dish. Bake in the oven for at least 30 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through to flip the edamame. The edamame should be crispy on the outside and seared along the edges.
Step 4
On another baking sheet lined with parchment, add pepitas. Roast in the oven for NO MORE than 10 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool.
Step 5
Allow the edamame to completely cool, then add it to a bowl along with the rest of the ingredients. Toss together and add sea salt to taste.
