Spiced Nuts

Mixed nuts are roasted to perfection with spices.

Dude.

how the heck could it have gotten up to 123 degrees where I live and we are one month into summer?!? Arizona is soooo hot.

For the past 2 weeks weve been having tempatures range from 110 to 122. The record temp is 128 degrees in Arizona, so we are close to setting a record temp! Not really related to this post but i needed to mention it. I feel like im going to wilt everytime i go out in the sun!

I miss winter, even though its still 70 degrees in December. Because guys. It’s 116 DEGREES today.

Okay so now I’m going to talk about the recipe.

Duuuude. These roasted nuts are to die for. Okay, not really. But with this recipe I found my obsession with Brazil nuts.

when I find a Brazil nut in the jar of these im like, ”I found a Brazil nut! YES!!!” I feel like i react to these to much.

In a whole can of these from the store (which, by the way, are two and a half cups) there were 3 Brazil nuts. So i have a reason to react the way i do.

I hope you guys enjoy this recipe! Right here i am using my computer fan. Very useful.
