I love snacking! It’s hard sometimes finding a snack that has the protein to fuel my energy for more than a couple hours. These spiced nuts make such a great snack or add a great option for parties and on the go eating!
When I was in my teens one of my favorite things to do was go over to my friend Hope’s house and we would have sleepovers. We would make all kinds of fun recipes for our long movie nights. My friend Hope and I loved to run so we we would often wake up the next morning and run to the nearest coffee shop and walk back home to make more delicious treats! This one recipe that takes me back to our fun times, it is my take on her mom’s spiced nut recipe that we loved to enjoy during many of our movie nights!
