Sweet and Sriracha Spiced Pecans Recipe

As I spend more and more time crossing the US from Miami to New York, I've also been spending an increasing amount of time in the airport.

I love getting to know this new city, but I also feel like there aren't enough hours in the day to sleep - let alone eat a balanced meal...or sometimes anything at all!

I often find myself sitting in the airport, eyeing all of the unhealthy snack offerings and telling myself, "I wish I had packed a snack!"

Packing a light snack has become a go-to for making sure I avoid a serious case of the hangries. It's also been a great way to make healthier, more informed choices about what I eat as opposed to being stuck with whatever is offered at the airport or during long flights.

I recently whipped up this delicious Sweet and Sriracha SpicedPecans Recipe in what might possibly be the easiest recipe ever!

I love that these are sugar reduced and calorie reduced thanks to SPLENDA® Sweetener Products. Instead of making these with my usual sugar, I usedSPLENDA® No Calorie Sweetener, Granulated, each packet is conveniently equivalent to 2 teaspoons of SPLENDA® so I didn't even have to measure out the seasoning.

Call me lazy but I took a small delight in that fact - fractions never were my friends. Plus, aside from a small amount of butter, the recipe features relatively healthy ingredients.
