We've been gearing up for a quick holiday jaunt to Tennessee next week for a much needed break after a very busy year, and while the time off doing absolutely nothing sounds amazing, I know that when we get back it will be crunch time to wrap up anything left on the Christmas to-do list. Because as soon as we get home, it's birthday week for the 3 of us in our house followed by holiday gatherings right afterwards with extended family. So I thought I'd keep a few short and easy recipes on hand for that week to bring to gatherings, or even to keep on hand for a quick last minute gift idea for those hard to buy for relatives. I'm one who loves getting consumables as gifts, and I know there are many others within my circle who do as well. So when I found this Honey Glazed Nuts recipe on Golden Blossom Honey a few months back, I earmarked it because I knew then that I was going to want to whip up a batch or two during the holiday season. 

 

 

Look no further than these Honey Glazed Nuts if you're in the market for a simple, yet impressive gift idea or party contribution. We always have a variety of raw nuts on hand because I love snacking on them throughout the year, but there is always something fun about dressing them up during the holidays. The honey and orange flavoring takes plain nuts and turns them into a gourmet treat. Package them up in a pretty container tied with a bow and you have a tasty, festive, and beautiful gift that's effortless but amazing all the same. Or, if you're short on time and still need a hostess gift or potluck contribution, this recipe has you covered! It's a great addition to the party spread and a real crowd pleaser. The recipe said to use either pecans or walnuts, but I did a mix of the two because I like a good mix of nuts for snacking and think it's nice to have a variety to choose from. If you want to get really fancy, throw in a few cashews for good measure also. Honestly, I'm pretty sure most nuts would work in this recipe (peanuts are iffy, but if you're feeling extra, give it a whirl and let us know how they turn out!) so have a little fun and do some experimenting. You may just concoct a traditional holiday treat that will please the family for years to come!
