Growing up, my mom used to make this Turkish version of muammara every time we had people over. It is so flavorful from the garlic and spices and filling from the walnuts, you can’t have just one bite. Paired with toasted pita, crackers, or whatever you like, it gets your taste buds going. The only downside is garlicy breath, but it’s well worth the compromise. Enjoy!

Among all other nuts, walnuts glow particularly bright:

Walnuts: contain nearly twice the amount of antioxidants than the same portion of any other nut, contribute to heart health, reduce the risk of certain types of cancer, prevent Type 2 diabetes and are packed with protein and fiber.
