Nutritional values
The macadamia nuts in this recipe are rich in heart-friendly, unsaturated fatty acids, as well as protein, fiber and other minerals. Paired with the watermelon, which is an excellent source of vitamins A and C, this makes for a wonderful, well-rounded treat!
Because the mildly sweet tasting macadamia nuts can only be cracked with special machines, they are only available shelled and vacuum packed.
