Pecan Meal Ideas
Note: Our pecan meal is only a byproduct of the shelling process, thus it is not always available. When we have meal available, it is sold in 3 lb bags. Don’t need that much? Just drop some pecans into your food processor!

I use 2/3 pancake mix to 1/3 pecan meal to make a cup for my pecan waffles. I also sprinkle some chopped pecans on my waffle iron before I pour the batter. Very delicious, full of fiber and lower carbohydrates. I am a diabetic but I don’t go without my pecan waffles! I also use pecan meal, Splenda and butter as a pie crust with my sugar free puddings and topping.
