Roasted Nuts That will Drive you Nutty!


The sun is shining, the birds are chirping and the water is as blue as blue can be.  Oh What a place!  Regis and Kelly are here and they have been since Saturday doing this week of shows from beautiful Prince Edward Island and they have been raving about it.  Really you cannot disagree.

Last night at the camp site I made a delicious appetizer that was a HUGE hit.  I saw it a couple of weeks ago on the food network.  It was on the show “Best things I ever ate” and it was Giada’s favorite snack.  Basically it is roasted nuts tossed with brown sugar, butter and fresh rosemary.

Simply put….. DELICIOUS!

Ingredients

  • Variety of Nuts
  • Butter
  • Brown sugar
  • Rosemary

Method

  1. Roast nuts in oven or on BBQ until golden brown and warmed all the way through
  2. In a large bowl, add some butter, brown sugar and fresh rosemary.
  3. Once the nuts are complete, remove from the heat and add to the bowl.  The hot nuts will melt the butter and brown sugar.
  4. Mix to coat evenly
  5. ENJOY!

Zesty Tip: Use a nice mixture of nuts, cashews, brazil nuts, pecans, walnuts, peanuts etc for that extra flavor and texture.  These even got a taste from the trailer next door.  I heard rumblings of a great party treat.

Alright I am back to the campground and ready for another fun filled day.  Last night’s dinner was pretty tasty and I will be featuring it likely on Friday.  Not sure what to cook tonight – but that is all I can think about.  I love to EAT!  Have an awesome Wednesday and check out Regis and Kelly if you have time.

Take care

Homemade Bubbly Beer Bread


Yes you read the title right, Zesty made beer bread!  I had a few requests for this recipe so I thought that I would share it with you.  No yeast, No rising, simply dump in the ingredients – give it a mix and drop it in the pan. Can you really get any easier than that?

I was thinking about making this all day long at work. As soon as I got home, I ran in the house, dropped my stuff and got right to it.  Oh so simple, I could not wait to share.

This bread would be ideal to go along with a nice hearty stew or even along side a nice pasta dish.
