Sorry about not having a lot of pictures for this post, Andy eat them too fast for me to get many. (Well Kate and I did our fair share as well :) )
So here is a quick and easy way to make those on the run, after school or just because, good for you munchies. Be aware, the paleo diet advocates, SOME fats. So don't over do it on this one, although it is very easy to do.
We did three different kinds of flavored nuts on one try but by far the Cajun flavor won out, for everyone. (Even me who is not usually fond of spicy.)
Ingredients:
1/2 a bag of the Costco raw almonds
sweet nuts:
1 tbsn honey
cinnamon and nutmeg
salty nuts:
olive oil and salt
Spicy nuts:
2 tsp salt
2 tsp paprika
2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1 1/4 tsp dried oregano
1 1/4 tsp dried thyme
1.2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional for those hot and spicy type)
Mix all the ingredients for the spicy nuts together.
For the spicy and salty nuts, mix all in a bowl with a little bit of olive oil, just to coat. lay out on a cookie sheet and sprinkle with the spice of your choice.
We tried the sweet nuts with the olive oil too but the honey just slips right off so try blending the honey with some liquid coconut oil first, throw the almond in the bowl and stir t around to coat them and than lay on the cookie sheet and sprinkle with nutmeg and cinnamon.
Bake for about 15 minutes at about 350 degrees, let them slightly cool (I liked them all warm mmmm), and enjoy!!
Stay tuned I will be posted an attempt at gumbo with this Cajun flavoring, can't wait!
