With one exception (I only used a rounded 1/4 cup), I followed this recipe right on down & really enjoyed the combo of maple coated nuts, beet & FUJI apple (love the flavor of those apples)! I also really like beets, but this is one of the first recipes I made using them raw ~ Definitely a recipe I'll be making again!

I love to cook new recipes and old, anything that gets us fighting for leftovers.
