Pecan Grove[/caption]
Say "pecans" and most people think of pies and other delicious desserts. But the rich flavor of the pecan makes it ideal for savory dishes, too. And since April is National Pecan Month, it's the perfect time to enjoy these versatile nuts!
Pecan trees are related to hickory trees and grow native in many areas of the south eastern states. Picking up the ripe nuts before squirrels do is the hard part. But in case the squirrels are faster than you, pecans are readily available whole or already cracked in the store. (Note: Wild pecans are harder to crack than the paper shell nuts that are sold commercially – in either case, a good nutcracker will be your best friend.)
