These are delicious with a glass of wine and pair up well with sliced pears, apples and cheeses. A lovely appetizer or nibble to serve with cocktails that won't overstuff your guests.

Hello...
I can hardly wait to try this recipe!
YOU have put-together a Winning combo
of cheese, nuts and spices!!!
However...will it be 'just as good' if I
