Roasted Salted Peanuts
More than half of all the snack nuts consumed in the United States annually are peanuts -- and salted, roasted peanuts are one of the most popular choices, according to 2013 information provided National Peanut Board. A 1-ounce serving of roasted peanuts -- about 32 nuts -- is rich in protein and essential vitamins and minerals such as niacin, copper and manganese. However, oil-roasted peanuts can be high in total and saturated fat. They also contain a large amount of sodium. When you're making salted, roasted peanuts at home, dry-roast them without oil and go light on the salt for a low-fat, low-sodium snack.
