Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas ! It is hard to believe that another Christmas has come and gone. The original plans were to have Christmas at my home tomorrow (Sunday). Then a couple of days before Christmas , some decided to come over Christmas day also. Had already planned to have ham for Sunday, so back to the grocery for a small turkey. I am thinking very seriously about going on strike next year. :-)
I love pecans, and had some that I wanted to do something different with, then Michael Lee West @ Designs By Gollum posted her recipe for Tabasco Pecans. Click here for the recipe http://designsbygollum.blogspot.com/2009/12/have-you-tried-tabasco-pecans.html. I can't handle the heat, but the rest of the ingredients sounded good, and she said the tabasco and garlic were optional, so decided to give them a try. Let me tell you!!! You can't eat just one! They were a big hit. The only thing I did different - I used a little garlic powder instead of the minced garlic (because I forgot the garlic when went to the store), and omitted the tabasco sauce. If I knew how much to use more for the flavor without them being to hot, I would have used some. But I was not about to take a chance and get them to hot for me. Let me tell you - these things are addictive. Thanks for sharing your wonderful recipe - I will be making them again.
Enjoy the Holidays!!

Hi There, Sweet Friend! Those pecans look delicious! I am going to make some of those this week!
Glenda-I was going to do those myself and just ran short of time. I think will go ahead and make them for New Years--I may do one hot batch and one without the Tabasco! You are probably busy as bee right now--it's Sunday!! Have another :) merry Christmas and take care. ps--Isn't it gorgeous out there ?!
I will have to try that, I love pecans.
Yumm! We like it spicy so I would keep the tabasco. I'll have to make these for my husband as he loves all kinds of nuts (inlcuding me) LOL!

The pecans look delicious. I will have to try them. I love pecans.
If it has pecans, I will eat it. I don't care what else is in it. This looks delicious! By the way, is your miniature greenhouse on your sidebar like a little fairy garden? I am so curious about it! Would love to see what you have inside better!

You show me a pecan, and I am yours. These look FAB U LOUS. Yummm.
I'd have to keep them away from Dion the dog, but I just may have to try these for the New year's parties.
LOVE the new blog header... so dreamy!
