Ingredients

• 200 grams edamame (shelled)
• 100 grams almonds (raw, unsalted)
• 100 grams cashews (raw, unsalted)
• 100 grams peanuts (raw, unsalted)
• 50 grams pumpkin seeds (raw, unsalted)
• 30 grams sesame seeds
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 teaspoon sriracha sauce
• 1 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Spread the edamame, almonds, cashews, peanuts, and pumpkin seeds evenly on the baking sheet.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, sriracha, ground ginger, and garlic powder until smooth.

Step 4

Pour the soy sauce mixture over the nut and seed mix on the baking sheet, ensuring to coat all the pieces evenly by tossing them gently with a spatula or your hands.

Step 5

Sprinkle sesame seeds over the coated mixture, spreading them evenly.

Step 6

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through to prevent burning and ensure even roasting.

Step 7

Once all the ingredients are toasted and fragrant, remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the trail mix cool completely. This will also help the mix to crisp up further.

Step 8

Once cool, store your High Protein Asian Trail Mix in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks. Enjoy it as a high-energy snack or a nutritious post-workout treat.
