October 22nd is National Nut Day! Get crackin’, folks!
on one of nature’s tastiest treats. Nuts are one of the healthiest, most nutritious, and most delicious snacks. Medical studies have shown that eating nuts reduces hypertension and the risks associated with heart disease. Nuts are also full of protein, fiber, and unsaturated fat.
Did you know that peanuts are not really nuts? They are legumes and belong to the bean family. Some popular types of nuts include pecans, walnuts, pistachios, almonds, and macadamia nuts. Nuts are extremely versatile and can be incorporated into any meal of during the day!
You can celebrate National Nut Day by baking a southern style pecan pie, or perhaps by sautéing some Thai peanut chicken with rice noodles! Nothing beats that sweet and savory combo!
