Measure pumpkin seeds.
Using a kitchen scale, measure out 0.6 ounces (approximately 17 grams) of pumpkin seeds. This portion provides the right amount of protein and fat to match the target macros.
Tip: If you don’t have a scale, use about 2 tablespoons of pumpkin seeds as an approximate measure. -
Prepare the pear.
Wash the pear thoroughly under running water. Cut the pear in half, then slice half of it into bite-sized pieces or wedges for easy eating.
Tip: You can leave the skin on for extra fiber and nutrients. -
Combine and serve.
Place the measured pumpkin seeds and sliced pear on a plate or in a bowl. Enjoy immediately as a fresh, balanced snack.
Tip: For added flavor, sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon on the pear slices.
