Pistachio

Pistachios are one of the world’s oldest nuts which are prized for their unique, slightly sweet flavor. Pistachio nuts are not only tasty and fun to eat but also super healthy. They are one of the lowest calorie nuts, which mean people can enjoy the health benefits of nuts while more easily staying within their daily calorie limits. Like all nuts, pistachios are rich in beneficial nutrients. However, pistachios have some unique properties that set them apart. They contain healthy fats and are a good source of protein, fiber, and antioxidants. They also boast several other important nutrients, including vitamin B6 and potassium. Their versatility means that you can eat pistachios alone as a snack, on top of a salad, mixed with dried fruits in trail mix, in baked goods, or as a crunchy coating for fish or meat.
