Hi Winchester
During this time of year we often find ourselves indulging in all sorts of treats, below is a handy guide to the nutritional content of a variety of nuts that we typically like to enjoy over Christmas.
Nut Variety | Calories (kcal) | Protein (g) | Total Fat (g) |
Almonds | 160 | 6 | 14 |
Brazil Nuts | 190 | 4 | 19 |
Roasted Chestnuts | 70 | 1 | 1 |
Hazelnuts | 180 | 4 | 17 |
Macadamia Nuts | 200 | 2 | 22 |
Pecans | 200 | 3 | 20 |
Pistachios | 160 | 4 | 18 |
Walnuts | 190 | 4 | 18 |
Remember enjoying in moderation is key.
Regarding Nut Roasts for Christmas Dinner, they are a delicious alternative to the traditional Turkey or Chicken, but can have higher fat content (12%).
So you may have to be extra good in the New Year to burn off your Christmas excesses!
Stay Well
