While doing my daily recipe searching, came across this. Making it tonight for the weekend, but looks too good to hold off sharing.

It uses pistachios here, but can work on any nut. I'll likely do a mixture of almonds and pistachios

Ok here they are- with one change- I added Parmesan cheese to them while they were cooling. Took the flavor profile way up.

The pistachio is better than the almonds. But either way- yum. Great snack!

I got nothing to say back to that. Maybe...thank you for admiring my nuts?

No, no, that's just not right. I'll go back to nothin'.

LOL.

That would be a definitive "NO".

Maybe I should go back and ninja edit my post to say "Never spoken these words to anyone".

Damn.

Just had my man-card credentials questioned.

Damn.

LMAO.

This looks good

I will have to try these

I love spicy nuts. I've never considered making my own, though! I don't know why, I make spicy pumpkin seeds every year. Hmmm....

The pistachios were much better than the almonds I'd say. Perhaps because the almonds have a skin, whereas the seasonings creep into the pistachio shell and actually coat the nut itself. Either way, they WERE good... The army came in post school and work and devoured them while I was finishing dinner.

Next question was "can you make the sugary almond ones?" Well, maybe if I have some extra Splenda.... Mm. There's a thought. Cinnamon, some chili peppers heat and the brown sugar Splenda.

I need to run to the market.

I don't think your man card has ever been in question my friend. I mean- look at the skills with the grill alone...
