Between meals, grazing helps to keep the metabolism going, thus preventing you from launching on ravenous rampages every time you sit down to a meal. Of course, one must snack wisely, and I wanted something hand-friendly and crunchy and satisfying, as well as healthy. After a bit of research, I settled on the only nut named on the famed Mayo Clinic's list of 10 superfoods. This recipe first appeared in Season 13 of Good Eats. Photo by Lynne Calamia
