The rich, nutty flavor of California Walnuts complements the velvety texture of the Brie. Serve with crackers and fruit such as crisp apples and grapes.

Baked Brie with Curried California Walnuts

1 tablespoon butter or olive oil
1/2 teaspoons curry powder, or to taste
1/3 cup diced red pepper
2 tablespoons finely chopped green onion
1/2 cup coarsely chopped California Walnuts
Salt and pepper, to taste
2 rounds Brie cheese

1. In large saucepan over medium heat, heat butter and curry powder. Add red pepper and onion and sauté 2 to 3 minutes; stir in walnuts, cooking 1 minute. Remove pan from heat; season with salt and pepper.
