You will be nuts about the selection of recipes included in this newsletter. There is something for everyone. Some recipes are on the healthier side and some are down-right decadent, but they are sure to hit the spot with friends and family!
Be sure to read my post “In A Nut Shell …” for more information on the different types of nuts. I have also included into on peanuts aka ground nuts or “grondboontjies”, although they are legumes, not nuts. Also, to be on the safe side, read my post “A Tough Nut To Crack” about nut allergies.
