A Recipe To Spice Things Up!
Last night I made a few different snacks in preparation for tonight’s private home screening of the movie, “Try It On Everything.” The other practitioners is serving bio-dynamic wine and I am responsible for healthy treats!
I found a very easy recipe in Eating Well magazine that is worth sharing. So easy and delicious! Included in the recipe, I have shared my own notes….
Cumin-Roasted Almonds
source: EatingWell
Ingredients:
2 cups whole blanched almonds (I used about 1.5 cups)
2 tsp extra virgin olive oil (Paul Newman oil!)
2 tsp ground cumin (I used cumin seed which I think is the same thing)
1/2 tsp salt, or to taste (used the full 1/2 tsp of sea salt)
1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Place almonds in a baking pan; toss with the olive oil, cumin seeds, sea salt and pepper. Bake about 25 minutes (I did a little longer) until lightly toasted…toss if you’d like! Let cool (they suggested a wire rack but this is not necessary).
Store in an airtight container! These are a delicious treat and vary from the typical store-bought nut. Enjoy!
