Wow your guests at your next get-together by swapping your standard bowl of nuts for a bowl of Trader Joe's Roasted & Salted Rosemary Marcona Almonds.
Marcona Almonds are exclusively grown on the Mediterranean coast of Spain and are known for their shorter, flatter profile. The Spanish nut also boasts a distinctively light and crunchy texture, which makes them perfect for snacking. For added flavor, Trader Joe's has taken these gourmet almonds, roasted them in expeller-pressed sunflower oil, dusted them with sea salt, and then sprinkled them with whole rosemary.
While delicious when enjoyed right out of the bag, Trader Joe's Roasted & Salted Rosemary Marcona Almonds are also great in recipes, like almond-crusted chicken and salmon, or tossed with green beans.
