Spicy Hot Nuts

Submitted by Sorrie_Lue

"A great snack. Made with no butter or oil. I use salt-free spices to keep this as healthy as possible...but it's so tasty, you'd never know. (Adjust the Cayenne if you don't like as much heat.) These make a great gift or the perfect snack to bring to your wine night."
