Seed Snack Attack

Seed Snack Attack

0 Comments/in Snacks/by Dr. Kira Frketich

If you are someone who craves salt, then you are in for some seriously healthy snacking! Sunflower seeds are very high in vitamin E, B vitamins, and magnesium. While pumpkin seeds are well known for their zinc, iron, and vitamin K. I doubt that you’ll be thinking about that while you’re enjoying them in this tasty treat.

Makees 2 cups

  • 1 cup raw Sunflower seeds, shelled
  • 1 cup green pumpkin seeds
  • 2 teaspoons Tamari

1. Heat a heavy skillet over medium heat. Add Sunflower seeds and roast, stirring the seeds often, being careful not to burn them. Turn the seeds out onto a large plate and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of the Tamari. Stir with a spoon to coat. Set aside.
2. Next put the pumpkin seeds into the same hot pan and toast, stirring often until puffed up and slighlty browned. Pour onto the same plate and add remaining 1 teaspoon of Tamari. Toss all together until evenly coated.
3. Pour back into still-hot skillet (removed from heat source) and continue tossing until dry.
4. Cool and store in an air-tight container.

Apple Oatmeal with Dates and Almonds

Apple Oatmeal with Dates and Almonds

0 Comments/in Breakfasts/by Dr. Kira Frketich

Ryan and I pretty much live on oatmeal or porridge during the winters. What could be better on a cold and/or rainy morning than a hot bowl of oatmeal?! This recipe is lovely because it elevates the normal bowl of porridge just a little. Kind of like haute cuisine for breakfast :)  OK, maybe that’s getting carried away, but it will as they say, stick to your ribs, and keep you going until lunchtime.

Serves 2

  • 1 1/2 cup water
  • 3/4 cup oatmeal
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup vanilla soy milk, almond milk, or rice milk
  • 1/4 cup chopped dates
  • 1/2 cup chopped almonds
  • 1 apple, grated

1. Bring water to a boil. Add oatmeal, cinnamon, and salt.
2. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer until liquid is absorbed (about 10 minutes).
3. Stir in remaining ingredients and let simmer for a few more minutes.
4. Serve hot.
