Mustard Free Mediterranean Herb Roasted Seeds

Crunchy, golden, and loaded with warm spice, this roasted seed mix is the kind of snack that disappears faster than you expect. Pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds get tossed in garlic-infused oil with oregano, cumin, and smoked paprika before hitting a low oven, where they slowly toast into something deeply savory and satisfying. A hit of lemon zest stirred in straight from the oven brightens everything up and keeps the flavor from feeling heavy. For anyone navigating mustard-free eating, packaged snack mixes and seasoned seeds can be a minefield — mustard powder and mustard flour hide in spice blends more often than you'd think. This recipe keeps the seasoning list short and completely transparent, so you know exactly what's going in. Every ingredient here is easy to source and straightforward to verify. The technique is simple but the results feel genuinely special — a single layer on a parchment-lined pan, one stir halfway through, and you're done. Scatter over fresh parsley if you have it, and serve at room temperature as a snack, a salad topper, or something to set out with drinks. Once you've made a batch, plain store-bought seeds are going to feel like a serious downgrade.
