Halloween is almost here! As you’re carving your pumpkins, set the seeds aside and try this recipe for Roasted Pumpkin Seeds from wannabite. This is a tasty way to use up those seeds – sweet and salty with a little kick! A yummy snack you can enjoy well beyond Halloween!
And while we’re on the subject of sweet and salty snacks, let’s not forget my FAVORITE – Candied Pecans. These are easy to make and delicious to snack on throughout the holiday season, or to use as a salad topper! This recipe from Gimme Some Oven gets it right with the perfect balance of sweet and spice. Keep these nuts in mind as an easy holiday or hostess gift. Buy pecans in bulk and make a large batch to be divided among Mason jars. It’s a great way to have a gift on hand when a need arises during the busy holidays!
