What You Want To Know About California Walnuts!
I’m a huge fan of walnuts; they are not only a tasty treat but a versatile ingredient that leaves behind an incredible flavor and completes so many other whole foods for nutritious, delicious meals.
Did you know that not all nuts contain omega-3s? Yes, it’s true, but walnuts have a lot to offer us, such as:
- 2.5 grams of ALA in one ounce of walnuts (this is more than five times the amount found in any other nuts).
- They contain a significant amount of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA). (are the only ones to provide this.)
- Essential plant-based omega-3
- 4 grams of protein per ounce
- 2 grams of Bieber per ounce
