Hello Everyone,
I hope some of you had a chance to try the apple recipes I posted in a previous post. The next letter I have in my recipe book is B.
This is how I arrange my recipes-alphabetically, not by category like most cookbooks do. I have given credit to the source of the original recipe, but may have modified the recipe slightly to suit my family’s tastes.
So, here is B.
If you make all the B’s, you have a soup, a side dish, a main course, and a dessert!
Happy cooking.
–Karen
