Smoked Cashews and Almonds Recipe



These Smoked Cashews and Almonds are delicious and so simple to prepare. When they were first out of the smoker, it was hard not to eat every last one of them. That’s for sure something I’ll be repeating next week. I might become a fully bloomed addict! Nuts and seeds are simple and healthy snacks that you can take on the go or eat while watching your favorite movie or sports team on TV. They’re great to add to and super simple to smoke in your electric smoker. Choose a variety of different options to mix things up and see what you like best. Cashews, peanuts, almonds, pecans, chestnuts, hazelnuts, pumpkin seeds, and sunflower seeds all make great nuts and seeds to smoke.
