I have started snacking on mixed seeds, but im finding them rather bland. Any suggestions of ways that I can pep them up a bit?

can you mix them in yogurt / cereal / smoothies / add herbs or spices to them / toast them or roast them

This, although if you're eating them because you're trying to branch out your food horizons, that really is commendable. I was not raised on a very big variety of foods (especially vegetables) and have had to develop a taste for them as an adult; if I gave up on everything after a first (or second or fifth) failed recipe I'd pretty much only eat broccoli for veg! So if it's a matter of you still trying to find out if there's a way you like them before giving up, then that's a different kind of story.
Are the seeds you're eating already roasted and seasoned, or are you doing that yourself? You might try a sweet roast or a savory roast, I like pumpkin seeds "roasted" in the crockpot with cinnamon/sugar, and I like to toss them with a little (LITTLE) oil and taco seasonings and then roast them in the oven for a few minutes; I eat these in taco salad in place of corn chips.0 -

Popcorn flavourins are good on seeds and nuts, if you can get them. Otherwise, seasonings are varied and tasty - just a spray of oil, toss with seasoning.0
