My favourite nuts are pecans, walnuts and almonds, in that order. I weigh out 30 grams in a dish and eat them for lunch. I also eat pignoli — pine nuts — but I like those toasted in vegetarian dishes such as spinach salad and sautéed greens with garlic. If your goal is avoiding carbohydrate, don’t eat cashews. The price of pecan halves is shocking, but I almost don’t care. I feel the same way about rib-eye steak, but I buy it anyway. Sunday dinner should be nice.
