Rosemary-Chipotle Spiced Nuts

December 19, 2011

Every year, I try to come up with a new roasted, spiced nut recipe for holiday food gifts to give to friends, teachers and loved ones. Rosemary-Chipotle Spiced Nuts has to go to the top of the list as one of my favorites. They are so easy to prepare, and I love the combination of using fresh rosemary and dried chipotle seasoning to give a hint of earthiness and spiciness to the nuts. These nuts are great on their own as a snack, but also wonderful tossed in a salad or on top of roasted vegetables, sautéed spinach and even stirred in yogurt. They make a healthy, homemade food gift just in time of the holidays.

Spiced nuts are a staple at our house during the holidays. Will have to try adding chipotle.

I adore fresh rosemary with nuts, and especially when they are a little spicy. And chipotle is my favourite chili!
