![]() Looking for a healthy snack you can take with you on the go? Look no further — I've got a savory treat for you: Cumin-Roasted Almonds! You can eat them as your scheduled snack, keep them at your desk or in your car to stave off grazing emergencies, or include them as your fat serving (depending on what kind of oxidizer you are — and if you're a slow oxidizer, go easy on these!). Cumin-Roasted Almonds 58 calories per tablespoon Ingredients 2 cups whole blanched almonds 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil 2 teaspoons ground cumin 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper Instructions 1. Preheat oven to 300°F. 2. Place almonds in a baking pan; toss with oil, cumin, salt, and pepper. Bake until lightly toasted, about 25 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack.
