DIETITIAN’S TIP: Several population studies have shown that people who regularly consume nuts are less likely to suffer from coronary heart disease, because nuts are high in HDL “good” cholesterol and omega-3 fatty acids.

What I truly love about these easy to prepare recipes is the wholesomeness, it may not be ‘health food’ but it is certainly healthier than many store bought products as it contains no artificial flavours or preservatives, I like to maintain the only numbers on food should be the weight and price!
