Ingredients

1/2 cup (60g) Walnuts — One of the few plant sources of omega-3 fat, and the base of the mix.
1/2 cup (60g) Cashews — Adds a creamier texture alongside the walnuts, plus magnesium and zinc.
1/4 cup (40g) Pumpkin Seeds — A good source of zinc and magnesium in a small, portable serving.
a small handful of chips (40g) Dark Chocolate — The higher the cocoa percentage, the more flavanols it carries — the compounds behind dark chocolate’s heart-health reputation.
1/4 cup, dried (40g) Cranberries — Adds chewy sweetness to balance the crunch of the nuts and seeds.
