Orange and Mixed Seeds

Ingredients

• medium orange 1 piece
• mixed seeds (pumpkin, sunflower) 2 tbsp
• honey or maple syrup 1 tbsp
• plain Greek yogurt (2% fat) 100 g

Method

1. Prepare the orange. Peel the medium orange carefully, removing all the white pith to avoid bitterness. Separate the orange into individual sections and remove any seeds. Place the sections in a small bowl.
   Tip: Use a sharp knife to cut off the top and bottom of the orange first to make peeling easier.
2. Toast the mixed seeds. Heat a dry skillet over medium heat. Add the 2 tablespoons of mixed pumpkin and sunflower seeds. Toast them for about 2 minutes, stirring frequently until they are lightly golden and fragrant. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
   Tip: Watch the seeds carefully while toasting to prevent burning.
3. Combine ingredients. In a serving bowl, place the orange sections. Sprinkle the toasted mixed seeds evenly over the orange. If you want to increase the calorie and carb content to meet the target macros, add 1 tablespoon of honey or maple syrup and 100g of plain Greek yogurt on the side or mixed in.
   Tip: Mix gently to coat the orange sections with seeds and yogurt if using.
4. Serve immediately. Enjoy this fresh and crunchy snack right away for the best texture and flavor.
   Tip: If preparing ahead, keep the seeds separate until just before serving to maintain their crunch.

Pro tips

• To enhance the flavor, you can sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon or a few fresh mint leaves on top.
• If you want a sweeter snack without adding honey, choose a naturally sweeter orange variety like a navel or blood orange.
