Chef's Tips

For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper.

You can add a dollop of Greek yogurt or a sprinkle of crumbled goat cheese for extra flavor and protein.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Substitute other nuts like walnuts or almonds for the pecans.
