  1. My Italian father used to roast chestnuts on the wood stove. While these are good, they are not as good as those. However, since I do not have a woodstove, I will continue to make them this way. Thanks for posting Leah Marie and Merry Christmas.
     
  2. Love this! I skipped the salt, as I really dislike the taste. Slightly sweet, crunchy, and highly addictive!
     
  3. I haven't tried this recipe due to the fact that there is no temp setting for the oven. Could you add it please?

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

<p>I am originally from Johnstown, PA infamous for three floods. Met my husband online, married, and moved to Latrobe, PA. Latrobe is about a 45 minute drive from Johnstown. Arnold Palmer, Mr Rogers (Mr Rogers Neighborhood), and the now defunct Rolling Rock beer brewery, all originate from Latrobe. I have been told that the banana spilt originated here in Latrobe, PA, but that is debateable with a town in Ohio! I have one dog, and a blue heeler, no kids. Unfortunately, my beautiful German Shepard, Adrianne, had to be put to sleep on February 21, 2008. We have adopted Sheila, a Blue Heeler. I am a self taught cook, as I have learned to cook by trial and error. I have A TON of cookbooks, but all of the recipes I try are from this website.</p>
