Sweet Crispy Pecans

Sweet crispy pecans are a healthy, organic treat to pack in that back-to-school lunch bag.

Sweet crispy pecans are a perfect addition to any lunch or snack! This recipe can be adapted using any nut you choose.

Can you believe it’s already time to get ready for school? Fresh boxes of crayons, sharpened pencils, and thick stacks of notebook paper wait, tucked away in my kids’ backpacks. First-day outfits lie waiting for Monday morning. The next thing to think about is lunch boxes and water bottles. The containers where we store our food are almost as important as the food itself. Many containers and bottles on the market today carry chemicals, non-stick coatings, or additives that can leach into food.

Last year I bought stainless steel water bottles for my kids and they loved them. Stainless steel is one of my favorites because nothing leaches into the water (like aluminum or plastic can) and it doesn’t contain a non-stick coating with dangerous chemicals like PFOA (PFOA -a chemical used to make Teflon, has been linked to cancer, birth defects and higher rates of thyroid disease). They’re also dishwasher safe.

Sweet crispy pecans are a perfect addition to any lunch or snack! This recipe can be adapted using any nut you choose.

A few months ago I found these super cute reusable, glass water bottles that are surrounded by a web of silicon (100% non-toxic). They’re dishwasher safe and come in several colors.

Sweet crispy pecans are a perfect addition to any lunch or snack! This recipe can be adapted using any nut you choose.

Recently, Mighty Nest asked me if I’d feature some of their products. As soon as I took a look at their site I said, “Yes!” Their site has dozens of items I’ve bought for years, but they’re all available in one place. Everything from stainless steel lunch containers, to glass water bottles, to reusable bags – they’ve got everything you need to get your child ready for the lunch room. They also carry stainless steel bakeware (one of my personal favorites). The bakeware won’t react with food or rust, doesn’t have any type of coating that can wear off, and each piece comes with a 25-year warranty.

Sweet crispy pecans are a perfect addition to any lunch or snack! This recipe can be adapted using any nut you choose.

Mighty Nest has kindly offered to give away some items to get you or your kids ready for a toxin-free lunch. They are giving away a stainless steel insulated thermos (great for soups or homemade hot cocoa), a glass/silicone water bottle, and a stainless steel lunchbot container. To enter, leave a comment below. Giveaway ends Sunday, August 21st at 11:59pm. Contest open to US states only. One name will be selected using random.org and be contacted. The winner has 3 days to respond before being disqualified and a new winner chosen. Good luck!

Sweet crispy pecans are a perfect addition to any lunch or snack! This recipe can be adapted using any nut you choose.

This sweet crispy pecans recipe can be adapted using any nut you choose and makes a sweet and crunchy addition to any lunch (it also makes for a great snack). I prefer to soak nuts overnight to help release the phytic acid (we get tummy aches in our family from unsoaked nuts). I’m not a fan of roasting nuts because the high heat can destroy the good oils. Instead, I dehydrate nuts at a low temperature. It’s easy – you soak the nuts in salt water overnight, drain, and then dehydrate the next night in the oven or in a dehydrator. Make sure to pack them in a safe container, like glass or stainless steel.

    You know, growing up I never liked Pecans (well, I didn't like a lot of food growing up) but I've noticed that as I get older, my tastes really *do* change. It's been years since I've eaten a pecan, maybe I should give it a try! I might be surprised and actually enjoy them.

      Wax paper is great and yes, I pack salads and other foods in stainless or glass containers. Here are my favorite paper bags: http://www.amazon.com/If-You-Care-Unbleached-Sandwich/dp/B003Y3D68S/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1313618724&sr=8-2 I also shared some of my favorites ways to get rid of plastic here: https://deliciouslyorganic.net/how-to-get-rid-of-plastic/ Remember to take it step-by-step! I recommend transitioning gradually so you don't get overwhelmed. :)

    My husband packs a lunch every day, and I've just begun packing my lunch. We would LOVE some sturdy, and safe products!! So far I'm packing in plastic and my re-usable Trader Joe's bag. Haha. We'll get it together, but I don't mind waiting for a full first check either. What a great giveaway and at the perfect back-to-school timing!

    I'm still learning about all the important nutrition in foods (i.e. more than just calories, fat, sugar, and protein), so your tip about dehydrating the pecans, rather than baking them, to preserve good oils, was really interesting. Thanks for all your terrific recipes!

    Hi Carrie, I have a question about soaking and dehydrating nuts. Do you leave yours soaking overnight and the entire next day and then dehydrate overnight or do you drain in the morning and leave them sit until evening, then dehydrate? I would love to try doing that since we eat many nuts. Thank you, Kelly

      I drain them in the morning, spread them out on a baking sheet, and leave them there until it's time to dehydrate in the oven. If you happen to soak them for 24 hours, it's totally fine. Just drain, spread out on a baking sheet, and put them in the oven.

    I've had one of the Mighty Nest glass bottles that I use when I travel for almost a year now and LOVE IT! It keeps the water cold for a surprisingly long time, and I can run it through the dishwasher when I get home. The outer lining also makes it shatter proof, which is ideal for a klutz like me. Several flight attendants on my trips have commented on what a great bottle it as well!

    Thanks for the Mighty Nest link! We started school last week, and I've been trying to find some good looking containers that I can feel good about storing lunches in for my kids. Are the glass waterbottles safe for school since they are wrapped in silicone?

      The glass bottle is pretty hard to break b/c of the silicone web that it's contained in, so in my opinion it's safe for school. If you have any concerns I know the people at Mighty Nest would be happy to answer any questions you may have! :)

Homemade Beef Jerky Pizza Roll-ups – Spread marinara sauce on a whole wheat tortilla. Sprinkle with mozzarella and spinach or arugula leaves. Roll up, and bake at 350 degrees F for 15 minutes until cheese has melted.  Popped Corn with Kale Sprinkles (make some kale chips and crumble them up. Sprinkle over popped corn.
