This Tasty Tuesday, let’s talk about chestnuts, the soft, slightly sweet gems of the season. Unlike most nuts, they’re low in fat, high in fiber and naturally gluten-free, perfect for a wholesome, plant-based lifestyle.
They’re also rich in vitamin C, potassium and antioxidants, helping support immunity and heart health while keeping your energy steady.
Roast them for a cozy snack, blend them into soups or add them raw to salads for a satisfying nutty crunch. However you enjoy them, chestnuts bring comfort, nourishment and a touch of holiday magic to your table.
Hit reply and let me know if you’ve ever roasted chestnuts on an open fire. 🎶 🎼 🎵
I started out over 10 years ago watching Forks Over Knives, decided to “try out” the plant-based meal plan and had shockingly incredible results. I’ve never turned back. I have lost nearly 50 pounds, and that is just one side effect that me, my family, friends and clients have experienced after making the change.
Having been an incredible cook my entire adult life, I started my own personal chef service, NuYu Nourish, to extend my help to others. I interned under a celebrity chef, became a celebrity chef myself and have been expanding my reach and goals ever since! My plan follows strictly and simply those of Dr. Mcdougall, Dr. T. Colin Campbell and Dr. Esselstyn.
