Happy National Pistachio Day!

pistachiosI love pistachio nuts. I can eat an entire bag (and I'm talking about those big 1 lb bags, not the little ones) in one evening. Give me a bag of pistachio nuts and a TV and I'm happy.

Today is National Pistachio Day, and that involves not just the nuts but the other foods that contain pistachio. Here's a recipe for Pistachio Ice Cream from Epicurious, and here's a recipe for Pistachio Crusted Chicken from AllRecipes. Here's one for Pistachio Chicken Salad. Here are the seductive Pistachio Date Sticky Buns that Nicole posted about a while back.

And don't forget that eating pistachios (in moderation) can lower cholesterol.
