Alpha Gal Friendly Rosemary Roasted Almonds
Crunchy, fragrant, and deeply savory, these rosemary roasted almonds are the kind of snack that disappears from the bowl faster than you'd expect. A quick toss in olive oil with fresh rosemary, sea salt, and a hint of garlic powder is all it takes before the oven does the heavy lifting. For anyone navigating alpha-gal syndrome, finding satisfying snacks can feel like a minefield — packaged options often hide mammal-derived additives or are processed on shared lines with risky ingredients. This recipe keeps things beautifully clean: every ingredient is plant-based, straightforward, and easy to verify. The low-and-slow roast at 325°F coaxes out a deep nuttiness while the rosemary crisps up into something almost magical. Let them cool on the pan and they'll firm up into that perfect, audible crunch. Make a double batch — you'll wish you had.
