Spiced Nuts

Sometimes healthy snacking can be a challenge, especially during the holidays when we’re surrounded by cookies, sweets, and other baked goods. Instead of reaching for the candy jar, a handful of nuts is filling enough to satisfy those mid-afternoon hunger pangs. This recipe combines zesty seasonings (which can easily be adjusted to taste) with delicious protein-rich nuts for a snack that’s fairly “neutral” on the health scale. But, as they say, everything in moderation! Stopping at just a handful might be a challenge :)




Ingredients: (~4 cups)
~4 cups mixed nuts (cashews, almonds, brazil nuts, hazelnuts, pecans, etc.)
~2 TBSP Worcestershire sauce (for a vegetarian version, use vegetarian Worcestershire sauce - traditional Worcestershire contains anchovies!)
~1 TBSP olive oil
~1 TBSP garlic powder
~½ tsp paprika
Pinch of salt (optional)

Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper and heat oven to 250°F. Place nuts in a large bowl. Add Worcestershire sauce, olive oil, garlic, paprika, and salt. Mix everything to the nuts are well-coated. Spread the nut mixture on the baking sheet.


Bake for about 20 minutes, stirring halfway through. Let cool thoroughly before removing from the pan. Serve up at your next get-together!
