HOW TO ENJOY IT ON KETO
- Higher carbs: ~27g net per 100g demands strict portion control (e.g., 10–15g servings)
- Creamy, satisfying texture can curb dessert cravings in tiny amounts
- Mineral-dense: Copper, magnesium, and phosphorus support metabolic health
- Works for liberal/targeted keto when tracked precisely
- Substantial fats (~49g/100g) help with satiety—pair with lower-carb nuts to dilute carbs
PREPARATION SUGGESTIONS
PORTION-CONTROLLED SNACK
Weigh ~10–15g (about 6–10 nuts) to enjoy the flavor without blowing carb targets.
DRY-ROASTED & SALTED
Choose unsweetened, dry-roasted cashews; add sea salt or chili-lime seasoning (no sugar).
CASHEW BUTTER (TINY SERVE)
Blend into a smooth butter; enjoy 1 tsp with Dark Chocolate (85%) as a treat.
CHEESE PAIRING
Pair a few cashews with cheddar or brie to increase fat and slow digestion.
KETO TRAIL MIX
Combine Macadamia Nuts, Almonds, coconut flakes, and a few cashews to balance macros.
CRUNCHY GARNISH
Sprinkle a few chopped cashews over stir-fries or salads for texture instead of a full serving.
