Do you like nuts? Do you have a favorite kind of nuts?
I love most nuts and I always use them in my recipes. They are a favorite snack too, and nut butter on a toast with sliced banana on top is one of my most preferred desserts.
Did you know that not everything we call nuts is a nut in the botanical sense? You can find out more interesting facts about nuts in my quiz:
Nuts are full of healthy nutrients and taste great, but they too have a recommended serving size; typically a daily intake of nuts is about 30g (a small handful) or approximately: 20 almonds. 15 cashews. 20 hazelnuts.

I was hoping we could do more than one nut. I used to eat nuts, but, do not anymore. I loved salted almonds, cashews and pistachios.
All three of them are really good.
I love nuts, but pistachio’s are my favourite ones.
Pistachios are really good, I like them too.
i picked pecans but for me it really depends. I love almonds for snacking while driving. cashews when cooking (peanuts as well).
I love them all too. In what dishes do you use cashews?
cashew chicken is my favorite!
we also make PadThai and replace the plants with ground cashews!
Now, having seen your recipes, I am sure you have many more fun uses than I do!
Sounds delicious! I mostly use nuts for dessert recipes, but I like adding them to rice dishes as well.
they are wonderful in dishes with rice!
I like all nuts. i dont really have a favorite. but i never count how many I should eat.
I don’t count them either. I guess they are better than chips and other snacks like that.
I really love pistachio nuts but they have gotten much too expensive
They are too expensive indeed.
I like all nuts and they are all nice in their own way.
I agree, they all have their benefits.
After getting fed up of almonds and walnuts I now eat roasted saltless peanuts. I like pistachios but they are salty.
I love them all except for walnuts. For some reason, I have never been a big fan of them.
I like the pistachios and walnuts roasted with salt.
Pistachios are so good, I love them.
This is so funny I agree that I love nuts. Every time someone mentions one I think – oh that’s my favorite.
These are great but hard to crack. I like to get them shelled.
That’s a good idea, but it’s kinda fun to open them.
Same here. Walnuts and macadamia are the only ones I am not a big fan of.
My favorite nuts are almonds and peanuts (unsalted)
I love both of them too, and I prefer roasted unsalted peanuts as well.
Unsalted is probably a lot more healthy.
Walnuts and cashews for me.
I love cashews so much!
I love almost all of the nuts, and it was difficult for me to choose a favourite. I think it depends on my mood. Oh, and it depends on what I have here in the house! I remember your nutty quiz, but I think I’ll go and have another go at it 🙂
Yes, it also depends on what you combine them with. Chocolate and hazelnuts or almonds is a favorite combination for me; and walnuts and pecans go very well with apples, for example. Thank you for taking the time to check out the quiz again!
Oh my gosh, now I want some of those as well.
I eat all kinds of nuts, dear Ellie … I prefer pistachios and cashew nuts
I love them both too! Pistachios are awesome, but I don’t get them very often.
As I said, I can’t help but change my mind.
Thank you! The photos are from pixabay, unfortunatelly I haven’t had much success trying to take a photo of a squirrel.
Squirresl can certianly make a quick get away @ellie925
They are very fast indeed or I am too slow.
