Spiced Nuts - perfect for those who prefer savoury treats!
I am one of those people who prefer savoury to sweet. Given a choice between an entree or dessert, I prefer having and entree… or two! So the next treat in my All They Want for Christmas Series is perfect for people like me! These Indian-inspired spiced nuts are incredibly addicting. They are moreish and it is impossible to stop at one. This recipe was adapted from the Taste website.
