Thanksgiving 2022 : Express Gratitude To Your Loved Ones

Thanksgiving is a carnival that symbolizes love, affection and unity; day by day the festival has been commemorated by people across the world with great enthusiasm

by Teamexpresspo

It’s that time of the year again! A time to give thanks, be grateful, and celebrate the joy of togetherness and the advent of good times.

The festival sees family celebrating under one roof to thank each other for being a part of their lives and to remember to never take anything for granted. It’s no surprise then, that a festival as lovely as this one calls for some really special food. This is where California Walnuts comes in. A handful of walnuts (28g) is packed with the essential fatty acid omega-3 ALA (2.5g) and has protein (4g) and fiber (2g). These super nuts elevate the nutrition value and give a flavorful twist to every meal.

Both healthy and scrumptious, the following recipes can be whipped up with a generous dash of California Walnuts that’ll add flavour, texture, and goodness to your meals. So, are you ready for a truly special Thanksgiving dinner? (All recipes curated by Chef Sabyasachi Gorai)
