Stay Young at Heart with These Nutritious Made-with-Walnuts Snacks

What makes a good snack? Naturally, we tend to choose snacks packed with rich flavors to satisfy our cravings or ones that offer us comfort and appeal to nostalgic childhood memories. But the truth is, most of the time, these snacks aren’t usually as nutritious as we’d like them to be. When it comes to snacking, there’s a common misconception that you must sacrifice flavor for nutrition, but we’re here to tell you – you can have it all – flavor, texture, comfort, nostalgia, and yes, even nutrition. Just one ounce of walnuts provide important nutrients for optimum health. One ounce of walnuts contain 2.5 grams of omega-3 ALA (that’s more than any other nut!) and 4g of protein, 2g fiber and 45mg of magnesium. So, when you need a quick energy boost, reach for a tasty, better-for-you made-with-walnuts snack! You’ll satisfy just about any snacking craving with fun, simple spins on your childhood favorites made more nutritious for adults.
