BIRDSEED

February 22, 2016 by CARISSA

Ingredients

  • 1 cup of Pepitas
  • 1 cup coconut flakes 
  • 1 cup nuts (Any combination of almonds, walnuts, pecans) 
  • ¼ cup of flaxseeds
  • ¼ cup chia seeds
  • ¼ cup buckwheat kernels (buckinis)
  • 1 tbsp cinnamon
  1. Mix all ingredients in a bowl except cinnamon
  2. Pour onto a baking tray and toast for 10-15 mins in a medium oven (mixing and turning a few times) until lightly toasted
  3. Let it cool and then mix though a good tbsp of cinnamon
  4. Store in an airtight glass jar in the pantry

The mix is rich in zinc & essential fatty acids. The walnuts deliver nutrients for brainy goodness and cinnamon is great for regulating blood sugar levels by improving insulin efficiency - thereby helping sustain energy throughout the day.

This is low in carbohydrates, high in protein and good fats.

(To increase Carbohydrate, add ½-1 cup Oats after toasting)
