The Good Eating Of Almonds

by Shelly

No matter if you live to eat or eat to live, good eating only gets better when you incorporate different ingredients and get creative with your cooking.

Almonds are a nice addition to any dish or cooking entree. From snacking on them to cooking with them to sprinkling them on your favorite foods, almonds always enhance a healthy appetite for life.

Five good things to do with delicious & nutritious almonds:

• Pan-roasting them with a touch of olive oil and your favorite spices.

• Lightly sauté and them into steamed basmati rice or couscous.

• Toss them on a classic steakhouse salad of iceberg lettuce and blue cheese dressing.

• Add them over simple popped popcorn for an extra crunchy, move-time treat.
