Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup sunflower or pumpkin seeds, works great for these as well!
  • 1 tablespoon coconut aminos
  • pinch of sea salt

Instructions
 

  • I pour the seeds into a skillet, stirring with a wooden spoon the whole time, for just a few minutes until the seeds begin to "pop". It'll take you back to the "snap-crackle-pop" of your Rice Krispies days.
  • When I hear this and also begin to smell the seeds roasting, I continue to stir for a few more minutes as they begin to turn a bit golden. You've got to watch carefully so as not to burn them!
  • Turn off the heat when they are roasted to your preference, add a pinch of salt-stir-then stir in the coconut aminos.
  • The coconut amino makes them a bit sticky, so once all the seeds are coated I pour them onto a plate to cool, then into a jar for keeping.
  • My recent favorite way to serve this is sprinkled on a salad with roasted chicken, avocado, dairy free ranch, and grape tomatoes on a bed of mixed spring greens.
