Mennonite Spiced Georgia Pecans

By Kevin Williams

Spiced Georgia Pecans, a delicious recipe from a Mennonite farmer...makes a great gift!

This recipe comes to us from a Beachy Amish Mennonite man in far SE Georgia.  Wow, I'd love to visit with him at his farm someday, because he has his family raise pecans, Vidalia onions, sweet potatoes, and all sorts of southern specialities.  He states that "this makes a nice gift when place in a clear glass or plastic container with a top and tie a ribbon around it."

Sounds like the perfect gift for someone who likes a little crunch!
