The almond is one of nature’s little wonders. Technically the “seed” of a tree, it’s filled with nutritious goodness and considered a superfood even. An ounce of almonds contains 180 calories, six grams of protein, 14 grams of heart-friendly fat and as much calcium as a ¼ cup of milk. Almonds help lower LDL or bad cholesterol in the body and are packed with magnesium, potassium and vitamin E. They help nutrients and oxygen move freely within the blood and are generally good for the heart.  

Packed with essential nutrients, heart-healthy fats, and cancer-fighting fiber, nuts and seeds are the ultimate superfoods. You can eat these crunchy treats alone as snacks, sprinkle them on your morning cereal, or add them to simple recipes to make gourmet meals. Nuts are nutrient-dense and versatile, making them among the most expensive yet versatile foods in the world.

It’s 5:00 PM and dinnertime stress starts to kick in. Your hungry children run around the kitchen asking what’s for dinner as you rummage through the fridge and pantry cabinets looking for ingredients to put something on the table.
