Instructions
- 1
Measure out all of your Peanuts, Cashews, and Almonds into a large Mixing Bowl.

Add the Raisins and Cranberries to the Bowl. These add chew and natural sweetness that balance the salty Peanuts.
- 3
Add the Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips and M&Ms (if using).
- 4
Add the Sunflower Seeds and a light pinch of Flaky Sea Salt if using. The extra salt amplifies all the other flavors.
- 5
Toss everything together gently with a large Wooden Spoon or your hands until evenly combined. Taste and adjust — add more Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips for sweetness, more Peanuts for crunch, or more Raisins for chew.
