Foodie Friday: Protein Power Mixed Nut Mix

With all the travel coming up I thought it would be nice to give you guys a good mix you can pack with you before you hit the road!

Protein Power Mixed Nut Mix

Ingredients - Serves 6
1 cup frozen shelled edamame beans
1 tsp olive oil
1 pinch sea salt
⅓ cup pumpkin seed kernels
1⅓ cups peanuts
½ cup raw cashews
⅓ cup dried cranberries
Sea salt
Pepper

Directions:
1.) Set oven to 350°F / 180°C / Gas 4.
2.) If using frozen edamame, thaw or defrost them under warm water. Pat the edamame completely dry and leave them to rest on a dry towel for at least 1 hour at room temperature. This is important as they will not get crispy, if they are still wet.
3.) Add the edamame to a bowl along with olive oil and pinch of sea salt. Toss to combine.
4.) Spread the edamame on a baking tray lined with parchment OR a porcelain/glass baking dish. Bake in the oven for at least 30 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through to flip the edamame. The edamame should be crispy on the outside and seared along the edges.
5.) On another baking sheet lined with parchment, add pepitas (pumpkin seeds). Roast in the oven for no more than 10 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool.
6.) Allow the edamame to completely cool, then add it to a bowl along with the rest of the ingredients. Toss together and add sea salt to taste.

Andrea has been at IPT since July of 2023 and has been the definition of consistency! She always makes adjustments to her nutrition and exercise when needed and pushes herself in workouts every single time. Each month she exceeds her goal of losing body fat mass, and has lost a total of 24lbs of BFM since joining! She's able to chest press 25 lb dumb bells and can do a full pushup without any assistance now. You can really see the difference in how Andrea carries herself and the confidence she has now compared to her first day at IPT. She completely transformed her life for the better!

Rey has been here since early June & has never missed a session! He's on-point with his tracking for nutrition and always does his cardio. He has hit every goal since he started and has lost 49.6 lbs of body fat mass and gained 3.8 lbs of skeletal muscle mass. Down from 48.9% BF to 36.6% BF. The health of his knees has improved drastically and he continues to have an exceptionally positive attitude!

Hi, my name is Dylan and I’ve been at IPT since December of 2022, and my fitness habits have greatly improved since then! Since I started at IPT, I’ve been consistent with all of my workouts at the gym, my workouts outside of the gym, and my nutrition. I’ve lost 13.2 pounds of body fat, and have gotten stronger and faster with every session. My training at IPT has helped me to throw a no-hitter this baseball season as well as decrease my 40 yard sprint time!
