Curried Cashews

Totally and completely addictive (and I don't even particularly like curry!). I cut recipe in half but kinda wish I hadn't....Enjoy~



INGREDIENTS
6 tablespoons lemon juice
6 tablespoons curry powder
4 teaspoons kosher salt
6 cups unsalted cashews


PREPARATION
Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of oven; preheat to 250°F.
Whisk lemon juice, curry powder and salt in a large bowl. Add cashews; toss to coat.
Divide between 2 large rimmed baking sheets; spread in an even layer.
Bake, stirring every 15 minutes, until dry, about 45 minutes.
Let cool completely. Store in an airtight container for up to three weeks.

~Maple Walnut Brownies~

I like these for kids, mainly because they're not super-sweet. Plus they take about 5 min to make. Enjoy~



Ingredients:
1 1/3 c. flour
1/3 c. cocoa
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
3/4 c. maple syrup
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 c. water
1/3 c. oil (canola worked well)
2 tsp. vanilla
1/2 c. chopped walnuts

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350.

Sift together flour, cocoa, salt and baking powder.

Add maple syrup, vanilla, water, oil and walnuts.

Mix together gently.

Spoon into a lightly oiled 8x8 pan and bake 25-30 min.
