Excerpted from Frank Lipman, M.D. & Danielle Claro’s The New Health Rules.
The less junky food you eat, the more sensitive and subtle your taste buds become. Without the onslaught of heavily salted, artificially flavored, fatted-up foods, your mouth learns to appreciate—and crave—good fats, vegetables, and salads. So forego chips and pretzels and keep a healthful sweet-and-savory snack handy instead. A half-cup serving of this blend (which keeps nicely in an airtight container in the fridge for a couple of weeks) will satisfy any yen, sweet or savory. Just mix equal parts:
- Raw almonds
- Raw walnuts
- Raw cashews
- Raw Brazil nuts
- Raw sunflower seeds
- Raw pumpkin seeds
- Cacao nibs
Then add a dash of chopped dates.
