Nuts

If you`re wondering what to eat to gain weight, it’s there right in front of you. Cashews, almonds, pecans, sunflower seeds, flax seeds, Brazil nuts, walnuts, and pumpkin seeds are all good for you. They contain polyunsaturated fats that add healthy calories to your diet.

Eating them raw or roasted or adding in foods as powder and chopped pieces daily is a good way to ensure daily intake. One tablespoon of peanut butter, for example, has about 100 calories. Each 100 g of almonds contains 579 calories and has 21.15 g of protein.

A trail mix of sweet and spicy nuts can be made according to the following recipe:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Combine walnut halves, almonds, and cashews in a large bowl. Add salt, black pepper, cumin, and cayenne pepper; toss to coat.
Heat sugar, water, and butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until the butter is melted. Cook for 1 minute and remove from heat. Slowly pour butter mixture over the bowl of nuts.
Bake nuts in the preheated oven for 10 minutes on a sheet. Stir nuts until the warm syrup coats every nut.
