candied walnuts

these simple walnuts from genius kitchen are calming which is good for the anxiety typical of the autumn or vata season. i only swapped the butter for GHEE and added some sedating NUTMEG so they are extra soothing. 

preheat the oven to 350 F. spread a c of WALNUTS over a parchment lined cookie sheet. drizzle with 1/3 c of HONEY and dot with 1/3 c of GHEE. bake for 5 mins, then remove from the oven and stir. return to the oven for 5 more mins, then remove again, stir, and spread them evenly to cool about 20 mins.

WALNUTS balance and tonify an over stimulated nervous system. the HONEY and GHEE are both warming and laxative which is so helpful for the typical digestive challenges of the vata season. finally, NUTMEG is the most sedative spice and is indicated for nervous disorders.
