The culinary joy of
nuts, seeds, dried vegetables, and dried fruit

When familiar recipes feel bland, you can always turn to the versatility of nuts, seeds, dried vegetables, and dried fruits.  These products store well in the pantry for easy access on those occasions when you need a culinary change.  They also supplement the nutritional value of the food.  And who can argue with eating healthy?

Most breakfast foods lend well to these additions.  You can quickly add nuts or dried fruits to yogurt.  A quick muesli mix can be made by adding various nuts, sunflower seeds, goji berries, raisins, and dried cherries to oatmeal or another breakfast grain.  With a splash of hot milk, you have comforting breakfast.

Pancakes are the favorite food of the griddle.  No matter how many times you make your favorite pancake batter, you can always dress it up with fruits.  Try adding dried cranberries, raisins, or dried strawberries. 

Quiches and casseroles are another arena where nuts, seeds, dried fruits, and dried vegetables can add new flavors and textures.  Try topping a quiche or casserole with dried cherries, dried raisins, and walnuts.   

With fish meals, pine nuts can be lightly toasted in olive oil and herbs.  The roasted nuts can be added to the top of the cooked fish to make a savory meal.

Baked goods and desserts have always benefited from nuts and dried foods.  Pine nuts, currants, and walnuts add a distinct flavor to many cookies and biscuits.  Ice cream is another dessert that benefits from these additions. 

When it comes to the culinary arts, never be afraid to be inventive and try new things with the products at hand.  You might be surprised!
