Sweet and Spicy Mixed Nuts

Thank you to Meijer for sponsoring this post! The ultimate party appetizer recipe or edible gift, these sweet and savory mixed nuts are always a crowd pleaser! 

With the holiday entertaining season in full force, I’m always in need of easy hostess gifts, appetizers and goodies to pass out to friends and family.

These sweet and savory mixed nuts are not only easy to make, but they are packed with heart-healthy True Goodness nuts including cashews, almonds and walnuts.

The nuts are roasted in a little butter then tossed with a brown sugar, rosemary and other spices.

They take just minutes to prepare making these sweet and savory mixed nuts the ultimate last minute party dish or make-ahead hostess gift to have on hand all season long.

To make my life even easier, I get all of my ingredients online using the shopmeijer website. By having someone else grocery shop, I save precious time that can be spent with my family or in the kitchen (my favorite place in the home this time of year!)

Don’t have these particular nuts? No problem! Any type will work including pecans, hazelnuts and more.

Just do yourself a favor and make an extra batch to keep for yourself. You’ll be so glad you did.

No forks required.
