Pecans come from an edible tree nut native to Mexico and the Southern states of the US.
They grow on a species of hickory tree, and they are closely related to hickory nuts.

Growing up I remember my Mom roasting pecans in the oven fairly often. We had pecan trees. So we had many dishes with pecans. Pies, cakes, casseroles, and roasted pecans. All so very good.

Still working on laundry....

I wanted an apple crisp today but didn't know how I would make it since the crumble for it is oatmeal and sugar. Neither of those is on the diet program I'm on. So, I thought I would use nuts as the base, and thought coconut...

Last year I went to the flea market where I bought some nuts that were being sold. These were seasoned and very delicious. I was thinking about making some of my own for us to snack on here and potentially as gift ideas later in...
