Commenting is not available in this channel entry.Not a bad list. I’d lower the pecans and hazlenuts quite a bit and eliminate pumpkin seeds, but that’s just me.
A lot of great vitamins and antioxidants from top to bottom. It’s a shame that you’re allergic to the most heart-healthy of all. A steady diet of the nuts you list certainly balances the occasional sweet indulgence. At least that’s what I tell myself. -Joe
