Hello!!
Long time since I've posted. I had hung up my blog harp and trying to just SMILE!!
For those that have followed me in the past on my weight lost, I'm now at a total of 116.2 pounds out of mind, out of sight. I've been doing this with eating low carb for the most part. Trying to find out just what carbs and my body don't get along. Soooo exciting, don't you think???
NOPE???
I'm in this for the long haul so of course I don't like to stick to the same old, same old. I always look for recipes and try them out. Found some really good sites and they have passed the family test as well.
I thought I would share one such recipe I came across and tweeted it a little. Just made them today and I'm well pleased. Oh...and did I say it was pretty easy.
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/2 cup brown sugar (I used 1/4 cup of Splenda brown sugar)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons water
- 3 cups pecan halves ( I used a cup each of walnuts, pecans & almonds)
Melt butter in a 4 quart glass casserole dish in the microwave. Stir in the brown sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon and water. Microwave on high for 1 minute. Stir in the nuts so they are well coated. Microwave for 4 to 5 additional minutes on high, stirring every minute. Spread cooked nuts out onto parchment or waxed paper to cool. What I did was spread them on parchment paper (which I love) on a cookie sheet and put them in a 400 degree oven for 7 minutes. Take out and let cool. Break up and store in air tight container.
