Seeds and Nuts Trail Mix.
Today my husband was traveling, I don't want him to consume chips, fried nankeens or similar unhealthy stuff which is easily available the market. Rather i thought he needs something healthy and filling, which he can easily carry with himself. So I prepared my seeds and nuts trail in which i used pumpkin seeds, Sunflower seeds, flex seeds, Sesame seeds and nuts like almonds, raisin and cashew.

I simply dry roasted all the nuts and seeds. As all seeds and nuts are having their individual size and shape and hence should be roasted separately. I pan roasted them separately and then mixed with sesame seed oil and little bit of chat masala powder, roasted jeera and rock salt to give it an Indian namkeen taste which we all love.
