Honey Roasted Cashews
Ok, I admit it! The snack monster chases after me most nights too! So what’s a girl to do? Well, the first thing I do is toddle into my kitchen and whip up a batch of these seriously delicious Honey Roasted Cashews!!!
They are decadently sweet, but by using natural sugars and paired with the protein from the cashews, there’s no spike in my blood sugar.
Speaking of protein, yup, cashews are loaded, plus they also provide abundant amounts of anti-oxidants, vitamins and minerals. They are also great for brain health! Don’t know about you, but keeping my brain function healthy is something I’m seriously interested in!
This delish recipe is found on page 7 of my recently published cookbook, Healthy Holidays with the Unconventional Foodie. It is one of 52 amazing, full-color recipes that you are sure to LOVE! You can pick up the book HERE.
