Nuts for Life | Australian Nuts for Nutrition & Health

We’re Australia’s voice for the vital role nuts play in good health and nutrition. We inspire people to enjoy a healthy handful of nuts every day. An initiative of the Australian nut industry, we also work closely with health professionals, government, and other bodies to improve the nutritional reputation of nuts.

Enjoy a healthy handful of nuts every day.

At least $980 million could be saved in health care costs each year, if all Australians ate 30g of nuts a day.

An Australian research trial suggests whole orchard recycling has the potential to reduce the carbon footprint of almond orchards.

Did you know? Nuts prefer the cold! ❄️

To keep nuts fresh, especially during the warmer months, store them in the fridge or freezer. That’s because heat can cause the oils in nuts to go rancid more quickly, affecting their flavour and texture.

If you don’t plan on eating nuts within a week or so, store them in an air-tight container in the fridge (where they’ll stay fresh for up to 4 months) or the freezer (for around 6 months). 🙌

Before snacking, give them a few minutes to come back to room temperature.

Tip 💡: Buy nuts in bulk to save money - and with proper storage, they’ll stay fresh much longer!

Spring’s here 🌸 and so is this flavour-packed haloumi salad, with nuts!

This vibrant dish pairs golden haloumi with sweet pear, bitter radicchio, and crunchy nuts - the perfect balance of flavour and texture. The bonus? Brazil nuts and walnuts add a boost of omega-3s, selenium and vitamin E. 🙌

Tip: Store walnuts and Brazil nuts (or any nuts, for that matter) in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 months, or freezer for up to 6 months to lock in their freshness.

Ingredients:
• ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
• 2 tbsp honey
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 180g haloumi, sliced into 1/2 cm thick slices
• 2 green pears, thinly sliced
• 2 ½ cups rocket
• 1 cup radicchio leaves, torn apart
• ¼ cup roasted Brazil nuts, roughly chopped
• ¼ cup roasted walnuts, roughly chopped
• Juice of half a lemon

Method:
1. Combine balsamic vinegar and honey in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat until it boils and reduces slightly. Remove from heat and set aside to cool and thicken.
2. Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add haloumi and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden and melted.
3. Meanwhile, combine pears, 2 cups rocket, radicchio, half the Brazil nuts and half the walnuts in a large bowl. Squeeze lemon juice over salad and toss to coat
4. Lay salad onto a serving plate and top with haloumi and remaining nuts. Drizzle over balsamic glaze and top with remaining rocket.
