Low Sugar Cilantro-Lime Seaweed Snack Squares
These crispy little squares are the kind of snack that disappears fast — bright with lime, fragrant with cilantro, and just savory enough to keep you reaching for more. Layering unseasoned nori sheets with a thin, even glaze and baking them low and slow is the move that transforms simple seaweed into something genuinely craveable. The base of coconut aminos brings a deep, umami-rich saltiness without any of the sweeteners that sneak into conventional soy sauces and store-bought seasoned nori packs. Ground ginger and turmeric add a subtle warmth that rounds everything out beautifully. Honey is listed as optional, so you can leave it out entirely if you're keeping things completely free of added sweeteners, or add just a whisper if you want the faintest edge of sweetness. Once they cool on the board, they snap cleanly and hold their crunch — perfect for lunchboxes, snack boards, or just eating straight off the cutting board before they even make it to a bowl.
