Oat Bran & Almond Bread

Contributed by: News Canada

(NC) - Adding almonds to your favourite foods is a simple change that can make a big difference in your meals... and your health. For example, almonds' delicate, toasty flavour and crunch make them the perfect complement to green vegetables.

Almonds are full of flavour and texture, and they have healthy benefits too. They are rich in vitamin E, fiber and magnesium, and research shows that eating a handful of almonds each day may actually help maintain healthy cholesterol levels.
