Almonds Slivered

These thin chunks of blanched almonds give a delectable crunch to a variety of dishes.
Almonds contain a number of nutrients that have outstanding health benefits. They are a good source of Vitamin E. Almonds are a source of healthy oils, mainly monounsaturated fats, the same type of health-promoting fats found in olive oil, which have been associated with reduced risk of heart disease. Almonds are naturally low in sugars and a source of protein and fibre to help promote a healthy digestive system and keep you feeling fuller for longer. They are particularly useful if you are trying to watch your weight. Almonds also contain many other beneficial nutrients such as magnesium, copper, manganese, calcium and iron and zinc.
