Peppered Pecans Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Popular Recipes. (Peppered Pecans Recipe). I like this roasted nut recipe because it doesn't use any added oil or butter - my husband likes this because it's nice and spicy! These have become a Thanksgiving tradition at our house, and make a tasty (albeit unusual) addition to salads, especially with the Maple Balsamic Vinaigrette from this site.
