Cinnamon Roasted Almonds

These almonds are addicting!  I made them to use for a salad, which I'll be posting soon, but Brynlee and I couldn't stop snacking on them.  Once baked, the nuts are crunchy and slightly sweet with just a hint of cinnamon.  They would be perfect for snacking on while reading a book or whenever you get the munchies!


Cinnamon Roasted Almonds
4 cups whole almonds
1 egg white
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1-1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 cup melted butter, cooled

Preheat oven to 250 degrees.  Grease a cookie sheet or line with parchment paper.  In a medium sized bowl, whip the egg white till frothy but not stiff.  Add vanilla, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Stir, then add in the almonds and butter.  Spread onto cookie sheet and bake for 1 hour, stirring occasionally, until almonds are golden brown.  Allow to cool, then store in air-tight container.

Chicken Salad Sandwiches with Fruit and Almonds

Chicken salad sandwiches seem to be the go to item for baby and bridal showers.  I wanted to make some for the baby shower, but had a dillema.   While I like the main components in the salad, I really do not like the taste of raw onions and celery.  However, I still wanted some crunch and flavor in the salad.

Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps

I am always looking for fast, easy and nutritious meals for my busy weeknight meals.  These wraps have become one of our family favorites.  We serve these with a side of wontons or potstickers to complete the meal. The filling can be made ahead of time and reheated if your day is extra busy. Bibb lettuce is our favorite, but feel free to use iceberg or even romaine for this dish. I hope you enjoy these as much as we do!

Best Ever Chocolate Chip Cookies

The name says it all. These cookies are my (and my husband's) favorite cookies! Not just your average chocolate chip cookies, these babies come out of the oven with a slightly crisp outside while still remaining soft on the inside. Use Ghiradelli Milk Chocolate Chips and you will have achieved chocolate chip cookie perfection!
