Spiced Walnuts
"This is from my Eat Well Stay Well cookbook. I haven’t tried it yet, but I’m typing it up for ZWT II. Pecans would probably work well too. I need to make these for my dad. I’m sure he’d love them! Makes 2 cups"

I just got done making these tasty little nuts. I'm going to add them into gift baskets for the Holidays. Really good flavor. However, I did taste them after they were done cooking and thought they needed a bit more flavor so I added more cayenne and salt while they were still warm. -
Wonderful flavor. I added more cayenne because we like things spicy. Watch these closely so they don't burn. These were very quick and easy. -
This was quick and easy! I enjoyed the flavor of the nuts. The sugar started to brown really quickly, I think the heat was too high. Thanks!

<p>My rating system: (I don't like giving bad reviews, so if I don't like it, I'll just not review it.) <br /><br />5 Stars OMG, this is one of the most amazing things I've ever eaten! I can't stop eating it, and I've eaten myself into a food coma. <br /><br />4 Stars The recipe is wonderful as is. I can't think of a single improvement and I will most likely make it again. <br /><br />3 Stars This needed a little *something*something*. I might make it again, but will add my own improvements if I do. <br /><br />I love to eat! And I love to cook. I tend to take over the kitchen when I get in there. Even the dog knows the command get outta my kitchen! LOL. Cooking for other people and trying new recipes or foods is FUN! I have a small (but growing quickly!!) cookbook collection and one of my favorite things to do is to read recipes and plan meals. Rachael Ray, Horn of the Moon and Moosewood are favorites of mine. <br /><br />We spend a lot of time outdoors camping, hiking and backpacking. Yup. I cook in the woods too! I've made deals with my hiking buddies... If they carry in my food, I'll cook for them. I recently published a backpacking cookbook.
