Apple Pie




This is a great and easy apple pie recipe.  I used store bought pie crusts (you need 2, one for the bottom, one for the lattice top), 1 stick of butter, 3 Tablespoons of flour, 1 Cup of sugar (half white sugar, half brown sugar), and 6 granny smith apples.  Lay one of the pie crusts in a glass pie plate and cut the other pie crust into lattice strips.  Peel, core, and cut the apples and layer them in the pie crust.  Cook the butter and flour on the stove top until it forms a paste, then add all the other ingredients until just boiling, then simmer for 20 min.  Once the filling is ready, pour the filling onto the apples and cover with the lattice strips.  Bake in the oven at 350 for 45 min, cover the top with aluminum foil to keep it from burning.

Stuffed Zucchini





This was made with browned sausage, cooked rice, tomatoes, mushrooms, and onions.  Cook all ingredients together in a skillet and then top a scooped out piece of zucchini and top with stuffing.  Bake the topped zucchini's for about 30 min, top with cheese before or after baking if desired.
