Apple Crisp Recipe

4 medium tart cooking apples, sliced (4 cups)
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup Gold Medal® all-purpose flour
1/2 cup quick-cooking or old-fashioned oats
1/3 cup butter or margarine, softened
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Cream or Ice cream, if desired
  1. Heat oven to 375ºF. Grease bottom and sides of 8-inch square pan with shortening.
  2. Spread apples in pan. In medium bowl, stir remaining ingredients except cream until well mixed; sprinkle over apples.
  3. Bake about 30 minutes or until topping is golden brown and apples are tender when pierced with a fork. Serve warm with cream. 
This recipe is from the Betty Crocker Website. The only thing we did differently was sprinkle some vanilla, lemon juice and sugar over the apples before the topping. It was delicious, if you do too many apples it won't cook right, so make sure you do medium apples, not large ones! Enjoy!

Korean BBQ Beef Skewers



I stumbled upon the food blog, Our Best Bites {angels sing}. What a find! Real food. Real good. We LOVE a good Korean BBQ and this is the first recipe from the blog I've tried. It was FANTASTIC. Probably the best thing I've barbecued.
Check it out here.
The recipe calls for either rice wine or pear juice. I had neither on hand. After a bit of googling I discovered I could use apple juice. Turned out GREAT!
