Ten Minute Easy Glazed Nut Mix
One of our favorite things about fall is going to the local fall festivals. From kettle corn to candied apples, it is just so much fun enjoying all the delicious food in between hay rides and corn mazes.

Of course, I had to come home and make my own so we can continue to enjoy the tastes of fall at home. {Psst…this makes an AWESOME homemade gift idea too and the holidays are coming fast!}
