I love nuts…from my head down to my…errrrrrrrrrrr. Um, yeah. I love nuts. They are a tasty treat – a delicious snack – a good side – a nice topping – a good dinner. Wait, that’s not just me who eats nuts for a meal, right?
Around these parts, we keep nuts on hand all the time – because sometimes Mama gets a brain freeze and can’t think of something for snack. Out come the nuts! Not to mention that they make a delicious garnish. Am I the only one who sometimes just eats the garnish? I’m not a very formal person.
So, More Than Alive sent me one pound each of almonds, cashews, pecans, and walnuts and I get to give away the same amount to one of you! So, I thought it would be fun to do a little nutty recipe round-up and feature…nuts. I’m predictable like that – plus, I like lists. See under the round up and enter to win a nutty gift pack!
Sometimes it’s hard to get good quality, organic and raw nuts. I was very disappointed this week when I opened a brand new package of macadamia nuts only to find they were rancid – just purchased from the store. Yuck. That makes me want to stomp my foot – you’ll find the quality and freshness of the nuts from More Than Alive is exceptional!

Wish I could follow you on Instagram. No Smartphone here. Is it worth it :)?
YES!
OK – convince me please….$70 per month, right? Yikes!
I do a lot of my work from my phone – so that allows me to stay on top of things, even when I’m not home or out of town on vacation.
If you have a friend who works for a phone company, you might be able to get a friends and family discount – that’s what we have through Sprint. I think Walmart has a plan that will work – it’s a flat fee….I can’t remember what it’s called though, because I don’t do Walmart. LOL
I wonder if I’d be able to work on the phone w/ the teensy keyboard.
I wondered that too – but it works great!
Yummy. We’re already a bit nutty around here….never can have enough nuts though. Keeps recipes (and life) interesting.
?Hope you have a blessed day
Stacy, thank you for this giveaway!!!!
I’m NUTS over nuts and nuts over you, lol:) In all seriousness, I truly love your blog. I want you to know how much it makes a difference to me on a biblical and financial level, along with someone who’s overcome her own food battles herself.
I could just kick my old demons who wouldn’t let myself enjoy the beautiful food group of nuts. Oh, where would my life be without some good old almond butter and raw coconut cashew balls? YUM!
Thanks for the giveaway and God bless:)<3

Your pictures make me hungry! 🙂
