Apples contain a natural starch called pectin. Varieties with more pectin (Pink Lady and Honeycrisp) won’t fall apart when stewed or baked – best for sautés, cakes, and pies. Those with less pectin, like Golden Delicious, will break down more when cooked. Use these for applesauce, muffins, and scones.
Look for thicker pork chops (about 1/2-inch-thick) for roasting as they’re less likely to dry out in the oven. This is an easy way to make pork chops and the secret is that the crispy cheesy coating is actually croutons.
Now that autumn is here and apples are in abundance you might want to make this delicious Peanut Butter & Apple Snack Cake. It’s a nice after school or after dinner treat.
These double chocolate cookies have a chocolate base and then are studded with chocolate chips. There is a lot of chocolate in every bite. Rich, decadent, and a nice paleo treat.
These are my all-time favorite autumn breakfast treats. They make a delicious after school snack as well. Golden Delicious work well for this recipe, but you may use any apple that you like.
Americans have embraced the Canadian invention of poutine, making it our own with some unique touches. Typically, French fries are topped with cheese curds and gravy. In this recipe, scrambled eggs and sausage are added to make a hearty breakfast dish.
Oh, my goodness, what a delicious treat these fries are. And the Garlic Dipping Sauce is insanely good as well. If you would like to make this recipe dairy free then use your favorite dairy free parmesan or cashew parmesan.
This recipe is great for either a weeknight or weekend dinner requiring very little attention once the chicken is on the barbecue. Making your own harissa paste will give you a much more vibrant and flavorful result than something from a jar. You will only need half of the harissa for the chicken recipe, leaving you extra to keep in the fridge to use in your cooking over the following days.
This summer, expand your grilling horizons. Fruit and vegetables have a place on the grill as well.
This is a nice way to enjoy roasted zucchini and is a great low carb alternative to hasselback potatoes. A good weeknight side dish as well as a delicious light lunch.
