My daughters, grandkids and just about everyone who visits me look forward to this mix of crunchy spiced nuts recipe during the holidays. And tucked in colorful tins, it makes a handy last-minute gift idea for busy hostesses or drop-in visitors. —Joan Klinefelter, Utica, Illinois

Love this recipe! Easy and tasty. I used pecans, walnuts and cashews and added extra cayenne (I like it spicy haha). Great to snack on or sprinkle on top of salads. A+! Thanks!
This is excellent!! I am not a fan of cranberries at all so instead I used dried cherries and it was excellent!! <3
Loved this easy to make snack! I enjoyed the different textures from the pecans and cashews, along with the peanuts and cranberries. Made a great trail mix and an awesome addition to my holiday appetizer table.
I just now made this, because I had a lot of cashews to use and needed a tv snack idea. Yummy and easy! I wasn't able to follow the recipe exactly because I had no peanuts or cranberries, but I used extra unsalted cashews, extra pecans, and raisins instead of cranberries. My nuts were unsalted so I added a little salt to the spice mix to make up for it. The seasonings are really nice - not too hot, and don't worry if the nuts don't seem crispy enough right out of the oven, they are just right when cooled. I didn't even have much sticking on the pan. This recipe really is easy and adaptable and just plain good!
I forgot to turn them over halfway through cooking and they were still great. Pretty easy to make also. I could have been just as happy without the dry roasted nuts. Pecans and walnuts are my favorites. Might try using just those two nuts the next time.

Quick easy and good
I just made these in preparation for a Christmas Eve party. After sampling, I'm going to make a 2nd batch right away!
I made this recipe last fall. My husband took some to work. Three guys asked for the recipe. When I made it the second time, I split the batch and sent some home with both of my adult kids. They've been begging me to make more. Very, very good recipe!
Great recipe,easy to assemble, no mess. What's not to like? I used parchment paper, no sticking. Will make again. Thanks Joan
