One of my main strategies for improving my fibromyalgia symptoms and creating a healthier life is to make smart choices about what I eat. I ditched processed food that is manufactured with toxic chemical ingredients. Instead, I choose real foods that are brimming with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory nutrients. Almonds are one of my favorite real foods. They are loaded with antioxidants and are a great source of Vitamin E, Vitamin B2, manganese, copper and other nutrients. I eat raw unsalted almonds with no additives by the handful for a snack, sprinkle them over yogurt, add chopped almonds to muffin batter, and use them in entrees and side dishes. Here are ten delicious recipes that use this nutritious and versatile little nut.
These entrees ramp up the crunch factor.
