It's Pecan Day!

pecan pieI'm not a big pecan guy. My tastes run more towards pistachios and cashews, but don't let that stop you from celebrating Pecan Day!

Here's everything you need to know about pecans from the National Pecan Shellers Association. Of course, no Pecan Day celebration would be complete without a recipe for pecan pie. Here's one from Rachael Ray, one from AllRecipes, and also one from Simply Recipes.

But there's more to do with pecans. Here's a recipe for Caramel Pecan Cheesecake, and here's one for Wild Rice Cranberry Pecan Salad.
