Nuts are packed with nutrition. They are full of the protein, fibre, vitamins, minerals and healthy fats that help you curb your appetite, protect against heart disease, lower cholesterol and reduce your risk of developing cancer. Every nut has its own nutritional package, and with so many types - from walnuts and pecans to pine nuts and brazils - the combinations are endless.

These recipes demonstrate ingenious ways of incorporating nuts into every part of the day. You'll see them ground into flours or butters, tossed into salads, stirred into cookie dough, baked into muffins and cakes, and sprinkled over ice cream, yogurt and oatmeal. So come on, embrace this health-boosting superfood and delight your palate.
