Roasted, Salty Goodness

There are certain food that just scream HOLIDAY to me! Pecans are always a special treat. One of the ways I love to share them is by Roasted them.

Nostalgic food is a big deal in my house. Just like SOUTHERN TOMATO GRAVY, BISCUITS AND SAUSAGE GRAVY, there are recipes that always make me feel like Home.

These Roasted, Salted Pecans are one of them.

Made with just three ingredients, they are also a great recipe to do at the Holidays with the kids or grandkids.

A simple method of cooking that shows children of all ages how to love on others with food. I loved telling my girls about the Pecan while they were growing up.

One of the few indigenous nut trees to the United States, the pecan was loved by the Indians and shared with Colonist all those years ago. Food and history, they often go hand in hand.

How to Make Them

Start out with a quality pecan half like the ones we use from PRIESTER'S PECANS. Like I said before, with just three ingredients and a cook time of about 15 minutes, this treat is one we often don't think of doing.

I almost feel guilty putting this into a recipe card because it is so very simple.
