Awesome-Tasting Food!

Here is the beginning of my Awesome-Tasting Food weekly. I hope you all like it.

I saw this recipe on SS&GF for cashews. If you love cashews as much as I do, then your gonna want to try it.  My problem is we never have cashews around long enough make something with them. They're gone in a split second.  Someday I'l hang on to enough and make this.

Spiced Cashews
makes 3 cups

3 cups raw cashews
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 tablespoon honey
1 1/2 – 2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon light ancho chili powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon cayenne powder

Preheat the oven to 350F.  Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
Place the cashwes in a medium bowl.  Whisk together the canola oil, honey, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, chili powder, paprika, and cayenne powder.  Drizzle over nuts, then toss to coat the nuts thoroughly.  Taste and add more salt or spice if desired.
Put nuts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.  Bake for 10 – 13 minutes, stirring halfway through.  Let cool on the baking sheet and store in an airtight container at room temperature.
