Now that it's November we can start thinking about Thanksgiving, one of the best holidays for food! One of my favorite desserts to make is this apple pie. It is always a HUGE hit and it's not too hard to make as far as pies go. It's a "crusty" apple pie meaning there is more crust and less apples. It looks more like a tart because it's not made in a pie dish. If you're the sort of person who likes the crust of pies, I strongly recommend trying that recipe! Also for Thanksgiving this year we have the opportunity to get a turkey from our neighbors. No, it won't be alive when we get (I know some of you are wondering that), but it will be fresh and it will have enjoyed time out on our property during it's life (they free range around the area). That's definitely eating local!
For dinners this week I recommend cauliflower cheese soup (one of my favorites!), crispy herb chicken, lemony chickpea stir fry, and pizza burgers! For dessert, try this pumpkin oatmeal cookie bake. I tried it this past week and it was delicious! Note that the recipe makes two substantial servings. It's meant as a "breakfast cookie", but if you add chocolate chips it is plenty sweet and delicious enough for dessert.
Have a great week and enjoy your extra hour this weekend!
