A Yummy Quick Recipe for Christmas

I have always loved pecans!
If they are in any dessert, or salad, or dressing, the more the better:) Even a handful of fresh plain ones are tasty:)
So tonight I looked online & found a microwave rendition of a favorite of mine. It turned out so well, I made two batches:)

GLAZED ORANGE PECANS

1/4 c. orange juice
1 c. sugar
2 c. pecan halves

Combine orange juice and sugar in a 7x12 glass baking dish; mix well. Stir in pecans. Microwave on ROAST for 6 minutes. Stir and continue cooking on ROAST for 8-10 minutes or until syrup crystallizes. Spread and separate glazed nuts on buttered cookie sheet to cool. Yield 2 cups glazed pecans.

Store in a pretty jar or tin & give as a gift, or, serve at your next party, or--take time this December to visit with a friend & sip Russian tea & nibble glazed orange pecans:)
A Christmas treat!
Edna, do you remember?
Merry, Merry:)!
