I received 4 packages of cashews & almonds from Yumnuts Naturals.
And OH.MY.GAWD yum is an understatement!
Wait until you see the pics that go with this review!
It took all my self control not to devour each bag at once.
I did actually use some of the toasted coconut cashews on crusted tilapia the other day…more about that later.
Some quick info about Yumnuts Naturals

Good source of iron and protein
Flavor roasted in small batches with “TLC”

No cholesterol
No trans fats
No or low sodium
Gluten Free
Now, try not to drool too much but here we go with the cashews and almonds I got to devour experience.
My favorite (though was really hard to determine a favorite since they all are truly delish!), the toasted coconut cashews
These are the most amazing cashews I’ve had.
Perfect blend of toasted coconut makes these addicting!
I felt bad not really eating the majority of the bag without sharing with my daughter.
So, I ended up making a crusted tilapia with them.
I just crushed some up, lightly breaded the fish, covered with the toasted coconut cashews and baked for about 30 mins at 350 and then broiled for another 5.
Yum!
Next up were the Easy Cajun Cashews.
These had the perfect amount of kick to them.
I did eat a lot of these solo but did manage to throw some in a salad and brown rice as well.
They’re scrumptious no matter how you eat them!
The chocolate cashews are up next.
Chocolate and cashews, how could you go wrong with that combination?!
Cocoa powder (not fatty chocolate) is dusted over roasted cashews making for an ideal light & healthy snack.
Lastly, were the cinnamon almonds.
These have the right balance of nuts with the sweet taste of cinnamon. My daughter especially enjoyed these.
So, there you have it.
Two thumbs up and now I’m wishing I hadn’t finished this review because that’d mean I still had some nuts to eat!

I love toasted coconut cashews for crunching or adding to nonbaked deserts, and simply delicious sea salt when for salty goodness.
