Spicy Paprika Macadamia Nuts (Keto)

Spicy Paprika Macadamia Nuts Keto

“Next to biltong and droewors, NUTS are probably the most popular go-to snack in our house. They just tick all the boxes as a perfect keto snack: high in fat, fibre and protein. We try and steer clear of the store-bought roasted nuts for several reasons: many mixed nuts packets (while convenient) usually include peanuts and almost always feature vegetable oil – two things which should be avoided on keto. However… in the spirit of being honest and transparent, I would be lying if I said we didn’t always have a packet kicking about. Anyway, honesty aside… during COVID-19 lock down, I found a packet of halved macadamia nuts in the pantry and got to work straight away when Funnyman said he was craving something spicy as a snack. These did not last long in our house – they were delicious!” – Monya

Best-ever Roasted Macadamia Nuts (Keto)

Roasted Macadamia Nuts Keto

“Nuts are the ULTIMATE fat snack and macadamias are particularly delicious when roasted. If you can spend 15 minutes once or twice a week to prepare a batch of roasted macadamia nuts, you will have plenty of servings. After roasting these super-tasty, satisfying fat bombs, I scatter over a pinch of salt and powdered erythritol as soon as they came out the oven. Be sure to allow them to cool completely before storing in a sealed container. The macros are calculated on a portion size of 35g / 1.2oz – which is ample for a quick snack to crunch on between meals. They smell like popcorn and taste like heaven!” – Monya
