A high-fat food that’s good for your health? That’s not an oxymoron, its almonds. Almonds are high in monounsaturated fats, the same type of health-promoting fats as are found in olive oil, which have been associated with reduced risk of heart disease!

August 21, 2014 at 12:07 amThanks for spreading the almond butter love. All of your recipes sound delicious, these cookies included. I love cardamom and add it to my coffee every morning. Now, I just need a cookie (or two) to go alongside my mug. 🙂
