Cajun Peanuts

Plan Z Phase: This is a Z3 (ZReboot) recipe contributed by Plan Z dieter Darlene. Great idea! Super easy.

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup unsalted butter
• 2 tsp cayenne pepper
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1-1/2 Tbl of garlic salt
• 2 tsp of Tabasco Sauce
• 4 cups of unsalted peanuts

Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 300 degrees.

Meanwhile, melt the butter, then stir in the spices and pour over the unsalted peanuts.  Bake at 300 degrees for 30 minutes. Stir every 10 minutes.

After cooking place on paper towels to absorb the excess butter and allow to cool.  I let mine set overnight before placing in a container.

At Christmas, I really missed Chex Party Mix! So, I stirred up the seasoning and poured it over a gallon can of mixed nuts. Followed the instructions on cooking in the oven, cooled on paper towels. It did take a little longer for the nuts to absorb the seasoning, but it was worth it. I had the taste of the party mix without the carbs!

Enjoy!

Cheers,
