Passionate for Pecans

avatar

Cookbook by

~Rita~

Pecans have great texture and taste. Loaded with heart-healthy unsaturated fats, pecans contain many vitamins and minerals such as vitamin E, folic acid, calcium, copper, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, zinc and several B vitamins. Pecans are naturally cholesterol-free and sodium-free, and one serving provides about 10 percent of the government's recommended Daily Values for zinc and fiber. Scientific studies have shown that pecan consumption can help lower blood cholesterol. April is National Pecan Month but don`t wait have them all year!
