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. Â 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. Â 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!
