Incorporating nutrient-dense nuts and seeds into your daily paleo meal plan can be done in various ways. Here are some ideas to help you incorporate them:
1. Snack on them: Nuts and seeds make for a convenient and satisfying snack. Keep a small portion of your favorite nuts or seeds with you for a quick and nutritious snack on the go.
2. Make homemade nut butter: Blend your favorite nuts, such as almonds or macadamia nuts, in a food processor until smooth to create your own paleo-friendly nut butter. Enjoy it on sliced fruits, celery sticks, or paleo-friendly bread.
3. Make trail mix: Create your own paleo-friendly trail mix by combining a variety of nuts and seeds, along with dried fruits and perhaps some dark chocolate or coconut flakes. Portion it out into small containers or bags for a convenient and nutritious snack.
4. Blend them into smoothies: Add a tablespoon or two of chia seeds or ground flaxseeds to your smoothies for an extra boost of fiber and omega-3 fatty acids. You can also blend in a handful of nuts, such as almonds or cashews, for added creaminess and nutrition.
