This recipe was sent to me by my #2 son. He says they are so good that it would be a shame not to share them with my Zaar buddies! The recipe only calls for walnuts, pecans and almonds, but if you are feeling a little frisky, add in some cashews and peanuts, too!! Great for serving at a picnic, giving as gifts, or just an anytime - in front of the TV type snack! Hope you enjoy!! Ingredients:
vegetable oil cooking spray |
6 tablespoons unsalted butter (3/4 stick) |
1/2 cup golden brown sugar (packed) |

1 teaspoon ground cumin |
1 teaspoon dried oregano |
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper |
