Roasted cashews

Both raw and roasted cashews are healthy and nutritious snacks that can be incorporated into a balanced diet. Raw cashews are a healthier option since they are less processed and contain more nutrients. However, roasted cashews are still a great snack, especially when consumed in moderation.
Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper. In a large bowl, combine the cashews, oil and salt and toss to coat. Spread the nuts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 8 to 12 minutes, shaking the pan every 5 minutes to help the nuts cook evenly.
Raw nuts contain fewer calories and less sodium, but tend to be less digestible. Roasted nuts are more flavorful and digestible, but tend to have a higher salt content. Both raw and roasted nuts have a high fat content.
Try to consume no more than one ounce (28.35 grams) of medium cashew a day to reap health benefits. A single serving of cashews contains about 18 nuts. One way to keep your intake under control is to pack them in small, single-serving containers or bags.
