Roasted nuts are one of my total weaknesses. The salty / sweet (and sometimes spicy) combo is one of my absolute favorites. I was sending a holiday package – for the Food52 Holiday Swap! – and knew these would ship beautifully, so made a double batch of these Sweet & Spicy Rosemary Cashews.

I think they lasted one day in our house. And I’d like to say there were more than just the two of us there, but there weren’t (oops!).

TOTAL sidenote, the Food52 Holiday Swap is phenomenal! If you’re a foodie (guessing that if you’re reading this you are – or you’re my mom, hi mom!) then this is a really adorable way to put some of your foodie skills to work and send a package to another member of the Food52 community. You’ll get a package from another gifter as well, and everyone really goes all out! Each year, I’m not sure if I’m more excited to make my package, or to receive one, but they’re always fantastic! One to definitely consider for the next holiday season!

Ok, back to the nuts. This is a really simple recipe and you honestly can’t go wrong! I would also say that if you wanted to mix up the nuts a bit, this would still be phenomenal.

You can find the full recipe here.

Happy snacking!
