Sweet And Salty Roasted Nuts (Brain food)

Looking for a healthy and flavorful snack? Look no further than roasted nuts! Almonds, walnuts, and macadamia nuts are not only delicious but are also considered brain foods. Macadamia nuts, for example, are packed with copper, vitamin B1, magnesium, and manganese, which are essential for healthy neurotransmitters. Walnuts, on the other hand, are high in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals that improve mental alertness and cognitive health. So, make sure to give your kids this healthy snack as an evening treat!

If you're looking to add some variety to your roasted nuts, try out these tips. Roasting nuts deepens their flavor, making them even more nutty and complex. To roast your nuts, simply place them on a baking sheet in an even layer, drizzle some oil, salt, and sugar over them, and toss to coat evenly. Then, turn the heat to 180 degrees Celsius and bake for about 8 minutes or until they smell fragrant. You can also use 2 tbsp of honey instead of sugar and add butter instead of olive oil for extra richness. However, dry roasted nuts are the best for your health. So, give this easy and healthy snack a try and let us know what you think in the comments!
