Podcast 31: Healthy Holiday Party Nibbles
On today’s Cooking with the Moms radio podcast, we hit the holiday party scene with recipes for Sugar & Spice Pecans and Mini Mango Cheesecakes.
Mini Mango Cheesecakes
The great thing about these easy recipes is that they taste great and they’re not dripping in sugar, saturated fat and calories. In other words, your friends and family can feel good about eating them. To make the spiced pecans, we use less sugar than most spiced nut recipes — but they’re still sweet enough for our taste — and there is less bad fat in our yummy mango cheesecakes thanks to the 1/3-less-fat cream cheese and light sour cream. We hope you’ll tune in, and by all means, if you get a chance to try the recipes, let us know what you think of them.
Sugar & Spice Pecans

Wow! Great, easy way to make our favorite treat. No butter needed. The cayenne was the “secret” ingredient. Thanks.
I was at Janice’s house the other day at a planning meeting for the neighborhood holiday get together, and she had out the Sugar+ Spice Pecans. They were delicious!!!! (I had to apologize for eating so many.) I came right home and looked up the recipe. She is right. My old recipe called for twice the amount of sugar. Well today I made them. I plan to put them out on Christmas eve and then again on New Years Eve. (I will most likely have to make another batch) They are perfect! Now to find a place to hide them until the 24th. Thank you so much!
