Any nut lovers out there?
*Raises hand and laughs because I am an immature goober* 😉
But seriously, who doesn’t love nuts? Obviously those with nut allergies have an excuse, but other than that, I can’t think of anything NOT to love about them. Let’s think about it…nuts are:
+full of healthy fats
+have perfect crunch
+packed with plant-based protein
+naturally fortified with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants of all kind
+come in a wide variety of tastes, shapes, and sizes
+can be made into NUT BUTTER (!!!)
+are portable and convenient to pack on the go
+satisfy you in the most HANGRY of situations
I don’t discriminate when it comes to nuts. I like them all! In fact, much like seafood, I’ve never tried a variety that I don’t like. But of course, I do have some favorites. Cashews being right near the top of that list!
Smooth, buttery, creamy, and so naturally sweet. Just like avocado, cashews are like ‘nature’s butter’! They just taste so rich and have such a unique taste to them. Raw, roasted, toasted, or ground into nut butter…I like them all sorts of ways!
Recently, I was introduced to the new Cashew line from Emerald®. Dill, Jalapeno, Sriracha, and Salt & Pepper…all seasoned and roasted to crunchy perfection. Whoever is behind their seasoning blends is a genius! Here are some thoughts on each flavor:
Dill | garlicky, tangy, and full of fresh dill flavor! (MY FAVORITE!!!!)
Jalapeno | zesty and bold with some hear from the jalapeno!
Sriracha | spicy red chili flavor with a little garlic and a hint of vinegar!
Salt and Pepper | classic salty and spicy pairing!
These nuts are pure flavor perfection! The sweetness that cashews have naturally pairs so well with the saltiness and spiciness of these new flavors. It’s like a sweet n’ salty snack without having to add any of the sugar for the sweet part. I also love that they come in so many different packaging options…big resealable bags with multiple servings, 100 calorie packs, and snack bags!
I’ve been grabbing a handful anytime a salty, savory craving strikes! They are so bold and full of flavor that you only need a few to satisfy yourself. Usually I go for raw nuts, but these are such a nice change from my nut snacking routine! They’d be awesome in a homemade trail mix or savory snack bar like these. Or even….ground into SAVORY NUT BUTTER?! The possibilities are endless.

So many delicious ways to eat nuts!!!! Perfect snack!
I agree! 🙂
YUMMMM. Those sriracha cashews are calling my name! Great post, I love having the choice of ready-to-eat snack packs of nuts, or more involved recipes that take a bit more time but can be so rewarding! Thanks for sharing!
<3 Beth
Thank you so much! It was so fun picking out all these fun snacks!
What’s nut to love about nuts?! While I’m typing this, I’m eating ice cream with pecans thrown in! I prefer raw nuts (hehe) to roasted. Rather than tell you what my favorite type is, I’ll tell you the only 2 that I don’t like–hazelnuts and macadamia nuts. Your goat cheese & almond bread is so going on my to-make list!
Yum!!! I love throwing nuts in ice cream! Gotta have that crunch! I thought I didn’t like hazelnuts but I’ve fallen in love!!!
(((sharing))) but had to chime in with the fact I still remember when we were supposed to be afraid of nuts because they had “too much fat in them.”
!!!
Gaaaaah! Stupidest ‘health’ advice EVER. Nuts are DELICIOUS!
Gaaaaah! Stupidest ‘health’ advice EVER. Nuts are DELICIOUS!
yum nuts are my go to snack thanks for all the options! Thanks for joining us for Meatless Monday today have a great week
So many different varieties and tastes! YUM!
Love nuts (giggles)! I haven’t seen the dill pickle cashews I will have to find those! While it would be hard to pick just one I would have to say hands down the cashew! One of my all time favorite snacks is Maca Maple Cashews!
Happy Meatless Monday, thanks for linking up!
OOOOOOH! Those cashews sound AMAZING!!!!
Snackity snack snack snackin’ all day! That’s what all this nuttiness makes me feel like doing 🙂 I’m usually more of a nuts in stuff kinda girl (hello delicious granola chewy bars and balls <3), but dill pickle cashews sound like something I just gotta try because its so funky and flavorful! Favorite nut: probably cashew. Raw or roasted: usually raw because they are a little sweeter that way 🙂
I like nuts in stuff to! LOL There is just no way to talk about nuts without chuckling! Also, totally agree about the sweeter when raw thing!
So many delicious options!
Agreed!
