Parmesan Almonds


I love almonds. They are a great snack on the go and are so good for your brain, hair, skin and even heart. I will say, though, that the best kind of almonds are the ones packed with tons of flavor. Raw almonds tend to be a bit on the bland side. I found this recipe for parmesan almonds on one of my favorite blogs, In Good Taste, and they are delicious and super easy! Make these flavorful almonds and have a great on the go snack for the rest of the work week!

You Will Need:
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 2 egg whites
  • 2 cups whole almonds

Here We Go:
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
  • Beat the egg white in a medium bowl with a wire wisk until peaks begin to form
  • Toss almonds in egg whites
  • In another medium bowl, combine cheese, garlic powder, paprika and oregano
  • Toss almonds with spices until evenly coated
  • Spread into one layer on a baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes, tossing every five minutes so the nuts roast evenly
  • Let cool before serving 

Makes 2 cups
Happy Feasting!
