I stopped by the orchard today, just in time for gala apples and bartlett pears. yum!
My stick blender came at the right time. I'll definitely be using it on some apples later this week.
I also picked up some tomatillos and jalapenos to make a batch of salsa verde.
I'm off to dig through my canning books/blogs to uncover and create some yummy recipes for all of this beautiful produce.
Any great ideas for what I should make with my apples and pears?
P.S. Check craigslist's farm/garden section for your area. You might be surprised at what you find. Today I bought 60 lbs. of extremely fresh, locally grown produce for around $20. What a great deal.

ReplyDeleteMmmmmm my vote is an apple pie!
ReplyDeleteApplesauce! Just stick peeled, chunked apples in the slow cooker with a tiny bit of water for 4 hours and stir. Don't add sugar. Cinnamon if you want, but I just add when I eat. YUM!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, these look amazing! I would definitely make applesauce, and make some type of pear tart. Yum!
ReplyDeleteHope you're having a fabulous Monday my dear!
