Oh Angie you’re killing me. I love nuts but am unable to eat them any longer due to losing all my bottom teeth about 4 yrs now. Have had no thyroid all my life and a terrible case of osteoporosis. Have bulging disks in neck and back, collapsed vertebrae and a few other problems resulting in losing bone in my mouth. Wondering how much longer will have upper teeth. Can’t afford dentures.
I miss being able to eat several things but apples and nuts are top of list, sigh.
These look so good can almost taste them so will make for Mr Furry and family for holidays. The mr.loves his nuts, always has. Thks for sharing this recipe.
Have great weekend
