Apple Delight

5 apples, cut into chunks
Honey
Cookie or graham cracker crumbles

Steam the apple chunks for approx 12 minutes. Pour the apples into a bowl, add as much honey as you want. Take the crumbles, add them in and mix well. Serve warm with whipped cream.

I had some super soft apples I needed to use, so I thought, 'Why not?' It was so good. Even B liked them and the girls, of course, ate it up. And, uh....I had two bowls.

Apple Enchiladas

1 can apple pie filling
10 medium flour tortillas
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup water

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spread the apple pie filling evenly between the tortillas. Sprinkle with cinnamon, roll, tuck and place seam side down in a casserole dish. In a pot over medium heat, combine the sugar, brown sugar, butter and water; bring to a boil while stirring consistently. Pour the sauce over the enchiladas and let it stand for 45 minutes. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes or until golden. And YUM.

These were awesome. Just the right amount of sweetness. You can serve them warm with ice cream and/or whipped cream. I think I might make a sweet cream sauce to pour over before serving next time. These were tasty and easy to make.

Yummy, yummy, yummy. Next time we won't use as much salt, but it turned out really good. Definitely plan on making this again soon.

Strawberry Summer Salad

1 bag of Hearts of Romaine lettuce, washed (or Salad Spinner-ed)
6 large strawberries, sliced
2 green onions, chopped
1/2 cup of sliced portobello mushrooms, chopped
1/2 cup of feta cheese
1/4 cup of Craisins
1 tablespoon of Italian Dressing or Sesame Dijon Dressing

Toss either dressing with the salad. Add onions, mushrooms, strawberries, Craisins and feta cheese. Mix together lightly with a wooden spoon or salad tongs. Add additional dressing if you want to insult the cook.

It's seriously making me want some right now.

Really fast and easy (I don't like to take a long time over meals...especially when I have a 3 year-old and a 17 month-old clinging to each leg). Normally I can't even eat salads when I'm pregnant, but I've been consuming these left and right. We never have left-overs.

Samantha liked the lettuce. Piper liked the strawberries. Me and Bryce liked it all. Yum.

Banana-Walnut Dessert

2 ripe bananas, sliced
1 tablespoon cinnamon
4 heaping tablespoons Mountain High Vanilla yogurt
Walnuts, chopped, as many as you desire

Put sliced bananas into a small mixing bowl. Sprinkle cinnamon, then add the yogurt. Fold all together with a spoon. Sprinkle walnuts on top. Refrigerate if you're not ready to eat it yet.

Rather than eat Bryce's delectable desserts, I made a somewhat "healthy" one that the girls would enjoy (and would be able to eat) too.

Super easy to make; I think it took me all of 5 minutes, if even that. Bryce liked it, the girls ate it like it was going out of style.
