Mermaid Nut Mix

Mermaid Nut Mix
There’s something wonderful about the combination of crunchy nuts, moist dried fruits and the mild tang of nori or dulse flakes that makes this nut mix rich and satisfying. If using nori, let your children be creative in cutting or tearing it into bite sized pieces or skinny strips.
Note: Rancid nuts are not good for you. Purchase whole raw nuts (rather than nut pieces) from a retailer with a speedy turn-over. If the nuts taste old, stale or rancid, do not use.

3 cups lightly toasted, organic nuts and seeds such as almonds, walnuts, Brazil nuts, hazelnuts or cashews, or sunflower or pumpkin seeds
1¼2 cup organic currants or raisins
1¼2 cup chopped organic dried fruit such as apples, pears, mangos, cherries or figs
2 sheets nori seaweed or 1¼4 cup dulse flakes

• Mix all ingredients together and refrigerate in a covered container until use.
Makes five cups.
