Nuts are an excellent source of nutrition which contain healthy fatty acids, protein, fibre, antioxidants and other vitamins and minerals.
Nuts can be added almost everywhere, including:
- breakfast cereals
- salads
- cake or pie crusts
- confectionary
- eaten as-is by hand
Recent Norwegian nutritional guidelines suggest consuming one handful of nuts per day for omnivores and vegetarians alike. Long gone are the days where nuts only come out at Christmastime; hazelnuts, walnuts, brazilian and other nuts, are now recommended at all times of the year!
