Munching on a Healthy Diet
What is usually on your mind when you have a sudden craving to munch something in between meals or on the move, let say while travelling in the car? I’ll go for Tong Garden roasted almonds. If you think they are just for satisfying your craving, you’re in for a surprise! These tasty nuts tidbits pack tons of essential nutrients in one very delicious package.
Almonds are the best whole food source of vitamin E, phosphorus and zinc. They also contain more magnesium than oatmeal or even spinach. (I hope Popeye is reading this!)
I used to munch on Snickers Almonds when I was expecting my 3rd child. The folic acid in almonds not only good for unborn child, it may help reduce the risk of cervical cancers and cardiovascular disease.
Other than munching on almonds, they tasted great when added to your cooking. My all time favourite recipes is stir Fried Rice with raisins and sprinkle some toasted almond flakes before serving. The toasted almond gave the fried rice a added crunch.
The nutrient fact and yummilicious taste offered by almonds is not only awesome, wait till you find out how great the Almond Abs diet is to help trim away that stuborn and flabby abdomen. The next time you had cravings for munchies, pick up a pack of almonds snack instead of MSG rich potato chips. Start a healthy life right away.

i luv nuts, and i find that roasting your own is better and more economical. The nuts include almond, hazel, cashew, peanuts and occ walnuts. I use the turbo broiler thingy and roast it at 200 C. The cashew/peanut takes around 20 minutes, the almond/hazel/walnut around 12-15 min. Try it.
The Queen says:Â I’ve tried the turbo broiler for cashew. Roasting till crunchy without turning it chao tah!

Haha… I’d go for Tong Garden’s rather than Snickers if I’m really serious about my health… But then again, who could resist SnicKers??? Drools…
