The Original
Our favorite way to enjoy leafcandy™ is on mixed greens, tossed with candied almond slices and dried cranberries.
Sometimes we will add Feta cheese, but be careful cheese can overpower the sweetness of leafcandy™. Unless that is what you're going for!

The Candied Almonds Recipe
Ingeredients:
2 cups sliced almonds
3 heaping Tablespoons butter
Sugar
Melt butter in microwave safe bowl. Pour almonds into butter, stir to coat them well. Pour almonds into a casserole dish lined with foil. Sprinkle sugar; stir almonds to make sure they get sugar on both sides. Bake at 400 for 15-20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes. Almonds are done when they are toasty brown. Let cool.

As a Marinade
We have enjoyed leafcandy™ on chicken & shrimp.

As an Alternative to Soy Sauce
Since Dann is allergic to soy and can no longer enjoy teriyaki or soy sauce, we like to use leafcandy™ on rice and chicken bowls.

Chicken Wings
We like to make a quick meal by ordering Dominos™ plain chicken wings and brush on a layer of leafcandy™. Place wings in oven pre-heated to 450 for approximately 4 minutes. The leafcandy™ will caramelize and remain tangy and sweet! Delicious!

As Sandwich Spread
We use it in addition to mayonaise (made with Canola Oil, of course) on turkey sandwiches! It gives them a great tangy kick.
