Thank you to www.ohnuts.com for sending a one-pound bag of raw pecans for me to review, as well as a bag for me to send to one of you (lucky) readers.

Another Contest
You can also enter my OTHER contest for a one-pound bag of raw macadamia nuts. Get those entries in! <—That contest has ended and a winner has been chosen for it, too. Thanks!
Disclaimer: I received a one pound back of raw macadamia nuts from Oh!Nuts to review. They also agreed to sponsor this contest. They provided a one pound bag of raw macadamia nuts for you to enjoy. I am responsible for shipping costs on this contest.
Due to the Federal Trade Commission’s ruling, I must always make you aware of when I receive free samples. I have always done that in the past (see my Reviews page and read my full disclaimer there) and will continue to do so.
And, most importantly, I have NOT been paid to write this review. All thoughts and opinions in this review are from me and of my own free will.
I’ll take ‘em, Michele! Pecans are wonderful in salads, particularly spinach salad with raspberry vinaigrette dressing. Yum! (Of course, they’re also great all by themselves. Can you tell I’m a nut lover?)

Although I’d really love them to make a nice pecan pie, my pregnant sister would eat them all before they ever got into the mix.
I’d love them for her. I’m trying to encourage more healthy eating and they’d be great for baby!
[Reply]
Thanks for allowing us to enter in the contest. Nuts Online is a favorite place to shop. I am working in West Africa and love to have some tastes from my Georgia home. I love to put pecans in quick breads, and salads but most of all I love them toasted in Rice pilaf.

I have cinnamon pecan walnut butter at home and would love to make some of my own from scratch (heck, I’d even leave out the walnuts).
[Reply]
My favorite way to eat raw pecans is by the handful. They have a subtle sweet flavor that salting or roasting destroys. Raw is the only way to truly enjoy the delicious pecan.
Another awesome giveaway!
[Reply]
I’d love to eat the pecans right out of the bag but the thought of chocolate chip cookies with pecans in them is making me drool.

Great review of the Oh Nuts products! I use pecans in everything. would LOVE to win. For last 3 years I have been battling for my life due to 3 inoperable spinal tumors. i am mostly bed ridden due to the compression on my spine, so need easy to eat and healthy foods. Nuts are a very important source of protein for me and I cannot keep enough in the pantry for what my needs are. Pecans are great raw, toasted, on a salad, in a sandwich, any time of day! And they are especially great making raw crushed nut, coconut, and date balls. yummm!

I subscribed and watched your you tube video. Congrats! my ageold vitamix finally bit the dust so it has made my health conscious eating much harder. I loved making juices and soups (raw) via the vitamix for along time. Now I have borrowed a champion juicer that someone had in their garage, but the blades are worn out so it doesnt really do a good job anymore. but it does help me to make a simple carrot celery apple juice..( with alot of cleaning afterwards due to the bad blades and a ton of fiber getting wasted….)…i love how you told of how you did the raw juice fasting in trial periods… that is the best way for the body to adjust and heal!

Hi Michele, one of my favorite ways to use raw pecans is for making “Cinnamon Maple Pecan Milk with Berry Radical”. First, I soak raw pecans in pure water, then drain and add them to my blender. Next goes in coconut water, cinnamon, maple syrup, vanilla, Berry Radical & InLiven Probiotic. Process in blender ~ this is sooooo delicious and healthy! Ends up tasting like a nutty chocolate milk. ; )

Geez! When I said I love raw pecans, I forgot to say I’ll have to hide them from my dad because he LOVES them too. We’ll eat them straight from the bag. I’ll finagle some to make banana nut bread and tuna salad. (I <3 tuna salad with pecans & apples in it. Yum!) Mostly, we'll eat them straight from the bag.
