These are addictive. They're sweet, salty, spicy, and crunchy. Cut back on the sriracha/chili flakes to tame these fiery nuts. Use smoked (not hot or sweet) paprika.Submitted by: STEPFANIER

Mango Pinneaple Smoothie w/Mango juice

Soy milk can be replaced with regular milk and fresh pinnaple can be replaced with frozen (I like Trader Joe's Pineapple Tidbits).
