This snack mix doesn’t need too much of an introduction, but it should come with a warning because it is seriously addictive.

Jump To Recipe

Something about the combination of sweet, salty, and crunchy makes this a snack mix that will satisfy and keep you coming back for more!

This recipe can be made with lots of substitutions or alterations. Use any nut if you don’t have cashews, and maple syrup is a great substitute for honey.

Note: Measure the olive oil first so it coats the measuring spoon and prevents the honey from sticking. Warming the honey will make it easier to measure and mix.

Ingredients

Serves 1-2

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon rice wine vinegar
1 teaspoon turmeric
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
½ teaspoon salt
1 ½ cups cashews
¼ cup sesame seeds
1 tablespoon seaweed flakes

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350° and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Add olive oil and honey to a medium mixing bowl. Add rice wine vinegar, turmeric, red pepper flakes, and salt, and whisk until combined. Add cashews and sesame seeds. Use a spatula to mix the ingredients together, then spread the mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 20 minutes, stirring halfway to prevent burning. When the nuts are done, immediately sprinkle the seaweed flakes on top. Allow to fully cool for 10 minutes before transferring to a bowl to serve.
