Thanksgiving Recipes (Most Popular)
This version takes it's flavor from the fruit and spices and does not contain nuts. A much smaller quantity of dark brown sugar replace the cups of refined white sugar in traditional recipes, making this version lighter, fruitier and lower in calories. I put a pint or so in the fridge to serve with a holiday meal and process the remaining relish in half-pint canning jars, using the water bath method. Total yield is about 6 half-pints or about 48 individual servings.
Original recipe on line at BHG Autumn Apple Pie used 7.5 fresh apples and 2 tbsp flour. They made their dish into a pie - I used Pillsbury Pie Crusts and made tarts/tassies for individual servings.
I like sweet things... so I'm always looking for healthy ways to make something taste yummy! And the holidays are going to hit me hard this year I think! So I'm starting with Halloween... this is a recipe I decided to try (I'm a pretty good cook for my green age :) )
Easy steamed asparagus. If you like your asparagus crunchy, decrease the cooking time and water.
Don't like lemon? Tabasco sauce adds a spicy kick!
The rich, sweet crust over the baked apple filing is delicious! Great alone, with whipped cream, or over ice cream. A little goes a long way.
Holiday favorite... could be made lower calorie with less butter, skipping the bacon, and using light sour cream
Fresh cranberries and apples mixed with nuts and marshmellows (optional) with walnuts for a refreshing side dish.
This dish can be used as a dip for graham crackers or ginger snaps, or cut up apples, or can be eaten alone.
