Brazil Nut Topping

I have been using this Brazil Nut Topping on pasta, pizza, and salads. It is reminiscent of parmesan, but tastes more earthy. Furthermore, Brazil nuts are one of the richest sources of selenium, an essential mineral with antioxidant properties. They also contain plenty protein and healthful fats. The addition of fresh garlic to this mixture makes this topping fragrant and versatile, perfect to perk up a pasta dish or add crunch to a salad. Try it and let me know what you think!

I love putting this Brazil Nut Topping on this Lasagna alla Karina and this Easy Homemade Pizza.

Sun Dried Tomato and Brazil Nut Dip

Sun-Dried Tomato and Brazil Nut Dip
Sun-Dried Tomato and Brazil Nut Dip

This Sun Dried Tomato and Brazil Nut Dip is everything I was looking for to eat with crackers or jicama batons. It is raw, assuming your tomatoes were actually sun dried, and it has a great texture. The inspiration came when my drum instructor shared some recipes from a time when she was raw. I modified to my liking and here it is. The Brazil nuts are high in selenium, an essential nutrient, and 37% of the fats in Brazil nuts are polyunsaturated fatty acids, a type of fat that has been shown to benefit heart health. I’ve made this recipe a bunch of times already, because it’s that good. You can double the ingredients easily. Try this recipe as a dip, or use it as a topping for zucchini noodles.
