A HONEY!

Today I received an unexpected courier package. A big basket of beautiful products from Aratiki Honey.

A recipe I entered in an Aratiki promotion was a winner.

Here it is below...

SPICY HONEY NUTS

Ingredients
• 2 1/2 cups mixed raw nuts - almonds, hazelnuts, walnuts, cashews, peanuts (anything you have)
• 1/2 cup mixed seeds - sunflowers, pumpkin
