Autumn Snack Attack

On seeds I’ll feed
to meet my need;
then share some seed
for those in need.
That’s my good deed.

Then God said, “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. Genesis 1:29 NIV

What you will need:

• Small packages or 1 cup each of unsalted
• Sunflower seeds
• Pumpkin seeds
• Cashew nuts
• Almond slivers or any other unsalted nut of your choice
• 1 packet of Taco seasoning mix

(Note: a great place to find varieties of nuts is at Whole Foods or similar markets and stores.)

 

• Pre-heat oven to 300 degrees
• Place nuts and seeds in large mixing bowl
• Sprinkle Taco seasoning mix over nuts
• Stir to coat
• Spread nuts in a thin layer on a cookie sheet

 

Watch carefully so nuts don’t burn. Turn every few minutes so all are browned on both sides.
Cool and eat.

Here’s a new spin. This mixture is great as an ice cream topping.
