Filed under Pies & Such

Summer is a time for sharing the excesses of nature’s bounty among friends. Recently, my friend Loie asked if I was interested in some fresh rhubarb given to her by a neighbor kid. While I’ve never used the celery-like ingredient in cooking, I saw the gift would be a good excuse to be adventurous. It [...]

What can be more comforting than a dessert made with apples? From pies, to tarts, crostatas and even crisps; apples are clearly my universal go-to fruit for a tasty dessert for a dinner party. The best part is I have yet to find anyone who will turn down something filled with apple goodness. My interest [...]

Crostata’s are a great way to add a rustic charm to any dinner party. The casual freeform nature of the dough enveloping around the fruity comfort is not only flavorful but also easy on the eyes. If you like classic apple pies or crisps, and then you will enjoy this crostata. It’s super easy to [...]

When you need to bite down on something to channel the pain, it should be sweet and delicious. My friend Josh recently seriously injured his finger to the point that it required surgery. Brent, our friend James and I decided to assemble a care package that consisted of a fresh batch of Classic Chocolate Chip [...]

The radiant glow of the moon bounced across the cloud studded sky as I exited the theater Saturday evening. Clearly fall has made its graceful entrance with a crisp chill in the air. This is the time of the year when I crave the warmth of cinnamon and nutmeg. A flip of the ignition and [...]

Have you ever become fixated on an ingredient that you can’t get out of your head?  I’ve recently become a fan of rotisserie chicken from the deli section of my local market.  It’s so easy to buy on my way home from work and it’s pretty flavorful too. So when Brent is off playing volleyball, [...]

This was the dessert for my Saturday Dinner Party. As if the Pesto Goat Cheese Tomatoes, Pear Lettuce Salad, Rosemary Lemon Game Hens, Roasted Vegetables and Savory Couscous weren’t enough; I had to stuff my guests with a delicious and refreshing grand finale. This recipe was one I have come to love and hate at [...]

I love a good apple pie recipe just as much as the guy I saw buying six of them at the grocery store. But let’s face it. Sometimes apple pies can become pretty darn boring. Especially this time of the year when I attend a dinner party and the host serves me a pie as [...]

Slow Cooker Applesauce

Applesauce is a versatile treat that can be used in both sweet and savory dishes.  I’ve seen variations of applesauce used with a great loin of pork and then in the very same breath used to create sensational sweet bundles of love…whatever that might be. Last week, I decided to transform a bounty for delicious [...]

Nothing really says fall better than a fresh baked and sinfully crusted apple crisp.  Since I have been making variations of this recipe throughout my youth, I think it’s pretty safe to say I have it down well.  Now that I’m all grown up, the butterflies still flutter when the kitchen is filled with sweet [...]
