Yield: 8 to 10 servings

2 ½ cups mixed nuts

⅓ cup pistachio nuts (optional)

2 Tbsp unsalted butter

2 heaping Tbsp finely chopped fresh rosemary

1 Tbsp cumin

1 Tbsp light brown sugar

½ tsp cayenne pepper

1 Tbsp kosher salt

¼ tsp fresh-cracked black pepper

1 Tbsp pure maple syrup

Preheat the oven to 350ºF.

Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

Place the nuts in a large mixing bowl and add cumin, brown sugar, cayenne pepper, salt and black pepper. Mix and set aside.

In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, melt the butter. Add the rosemary and stir occasionally. Cook until fragrant, approximately 1 to 2 minutes. Make sure not to over-simmer until it burns, and do not bring it to boil. Remove from the heat and stir in the maple syrup.

Pour the melted butter and rosemary mixture over the nuts. Stir thoroughly until mixed well.

Transfer the seasoned nuts into the prepared rimmed baking sheets. Using the back of an offset spatula, spread the nuts across the baking sheets evenly.

Bake for 20 minutes. Stir after the first 10 minutes.

Let the nuts cool slightly before transferring them into containers. They will harden and stick to the pan if they cool completely. Transfer to mason jars if gifting.

5 Top Tips to Finding Your Next Doctor

1 Keep an Open Mind! Healthcare has come a long way. Today, you have access to practitioners that branch outside of traditional medicine and aim to identify the root causes of conditions while using alternative treatments that may help you get the relief you need. Just because it’s not a pill, doesn’t make it pseudoscience.

2 Build Your Health Care Team. There is no one doctor that can be the be-all-end-all for your health needs. Be sure to have a team of practitioners with different “lenses” and areas of expertise who will treat the root cause and not just the symptom(s).

3 Environment Influences Healing. Health is multi-factorial. Your mental and emotional environment plays a pivotal role in your healing potential. Your doctors and their staff should create an office atmosphere filled with positivity so you can get the most out of your care.

4 Your Story Matters. Before you begin any treatment, be sure to have a comprehensive consultation to discuss your health concerns. Find practitioners who welcome questions and will take the time to listen and treat you with respect.

5 Report of Findings. When it comes to our health, we often make decisions without understanding the risk versus benefits. Knowledge is an important part of the healing process and is essential to make conscious, informed health decisions. Find practitioners who take the time to explain their exam findings and the recommendations for treatment in ways that make sense to you.
