Easy Low-Carb Herb-Spiced Cashews

These herb-spiced cashews are among the best snack recipes you can prepare this season. Cashews are nutrient-dense snacks, loaded with healthy fats, and perfect for your Low-Carb diet. We seasoned them with herbs, smoked paprika, and cayenne for a wonderful snack you can serve to your guests. You can adjust the amount of seasoning according to your taste or add a handful of pecans (they would work perfectly for this recipe). This lovely recipe is also effortless to prepare and requires just 20 minutes of your time (just 5 minutes of the preparation time). You can serve them immediately or store them for later.

Can I prepare these Low-Carb herb-spiced cashews in advance?

Absolutely! Prepare the cashews and store them at room temperature until ready to serve. They will last for about 2 weeks in the pantry or a month in the fridge.

How do you customize this recipe?

You can combine the cashews with some other nuts (such as pecans) or adjust the seasoning according to your taste. Adding more cayenne will add an extra kick to this fantastic recipe. You can also use about a tablespoon of fresh thyme or add some other fresh or dried herbs. We seasoned the prepared cashews with some sea salt for the best flavor (this is optional). Enjoy.

Are cashews Low-Carb?

Although some other types of nuts, such as pecans or macadamia nuts, have fewer net carbs, you can still enjoy cashews in moderation while on the Low-Carb diet. This fantastic recipe has 9g of net carbs per serving, making it an excellent, low-carb snack you can enjoy and still stay within your daily carb limits.

    I thought CASHEWS were to be AVOIDED? Why is this recipe even on here?

      It has 9 grams of carbs per serving! Just avoid the recipe instead of complaining it’s on here
