I was someone who liked to cook until I became a mother. That still hasn't changed. It has just changed what I cook more often than I'd like to.
Sweet & Spicy Pecans
1/4 c. sugar
1 c. warm water
1 c. pecan halves
2 tbsp. sugar
1 tbsp. chili powder
1/8 tsp. ground red pepper
Stir together 1/4 c. sugar and 1 c. warm water until sugar dissolves. Add pecan halves and soak 10 minutes. Drain, discarding sugar mixture. Combine 2 tbsp. sugar, chili powder, and red pepper. Add pecans, tossing to coat. Place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes or until pecans are golden brown, stirring once.
Yield: 1 c.
Prep Time: 5 min.
Soak Time: 10 min.
Bake time: 10 min.
You can use almonds too if you don't like pecans.
If you buy nuts in bulk, put extra in freezer bags and freeze.
