Naughty + Nice Pecans

Unexpected company popping in?  I think we’ve all been there. You scramble to find the cheese ball and crackers or oven baked dip. Both great options but what if you mixed things up and went “old school”. Think Mad Men era? Pour some drinks and serve these spicy + sweet pecans! We warn you, they’re addictive so definitely make LOTS! The secret to the crunch? Egg whites! Wrap them up as a “take with” gift when the night is over!
