Cinnamon Sugar Walnuts

This year, my neighbor and I exchanged kitchen "treat" gifts with one another.  

While she gushed over my plate of molasses cookies and toffee bars, I have to say that her cute, simply decorated jar of cinnamon sugar walnuts, were insanely more delicious than my cookies, not to mention addicting. I've eaten nearly the entire jar myself! 

Realizing that the jar is almost empty makes me very disappointed. So, I've decided it's a recipe I must have. ☺ After all, there are worse things a person could snack on, right? (Walnuts are actually prostate and breast cancer reducers, and promote heart and brain health, among a few other positive benefits recent studies have revealed. Now, that makes them worth snacking on!)

I came across an interesting diagram the other day that showed 7 meals a nutritionist would eat, and they only take 5 minutes to prepare. 

 

Wow! I'm all in. Simple, healthy and relatively inexpensive. Who couldn't use a few ideas for a meal like that every once in a while?

 

Now, granted, you may not get your children (or even my husband for that matter ~ lol!) running to the table or clamoring for more, but hey, you never know.... They just might like at least a couple of the choices! Nothing ventured, nothing gained, I always say.

 

I love this idea of picture recipes so much that I think I'm a bit giddy over the prospect of finding an entire cookbook of picture recipes. I think I saw one once. And you know what? I think it was for men. Hmmm... They just might be onto something here! Basic. Easy. Healthy. Done!
