"We better use this fruit up" muffins. Not a real recipe but a good title for what they are. I have a basic muffin recipe and then toss things from the fridge or freezer. Sometimes they're a mishmash but they always taste good and get eaten lol.

I baked these Chewy Coconut Bars this weekend. They were delicious. I recommend DOUBLING the amount of coconut it calls for and maybe cut back on the amount of sugar by about 1/4 cup. I also used half vanilla extract half almond. delicious with the changes.

yesterday afternoon could NOT resist making up 2 more tomato pies! Yep, if you've never made one try!! Delicious, fresh tasting, oh what can I say? this will most def. be going on our Christmas dinner menu as an appetizer!

I just searched the web to find variations of recipes and then settled making mine this way using store bought frozen crusts.

Ingredients

1 box 9" frozen pie crust ( 2 in box )
10 large tomatoes
1 cup sliced, sauteed mushrooms
1 cup diced green onions
1 cup diced fresh spinach
1/2 cup diced each of fresh basil leaves and fresh cilantro
4 cups any mixture of grated cheese you like, we used Old cheddar/Mozzarella and Parmesan
salt and pepper to your liking

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees

- prepare 10 large tomatoes for roasting
- wash and slice an x on the bottom of each and cut out the top stem part
- put bottom x side up on a large baking tray, roast for 1 hour

As they cook thaw the 2 pie crusts for 10 min. at room temp and prick them with a fork all over and
bake in the same 400 degree oven 9-11 minutes, remove and let them cool

Now back to the tomatoes, when finished roasting remove from oven and
Reduce oven to 350 degrees.

- immerse one at a time gently into a sink of very cold water
( the inside strainer style bowl of a salad spinner works great to hold and nestle them)
- let them really cool in there as you gently remove the skins
- hold each in palm of hand and squeeze whatever seeds will easily fall out as you go ( no man handling )
- place them on many layers of paper towel and roll up like a jelly roll to press out more water/juice ( gently )

- Arrange mushrooms and green onions evenly in bottom of each pie crust
- Place the tomato mixture in a large bowl and add the herbs, spinach, salt and pepper, and gently work the herbs through
- scoop half into each pie crust on top of the mushrooms and green onion
- top each with 2 cups of the grated cheese

Bake for 45 min at 350 degrees....let cool, slice and yummo! enjoy

I made some chocolate spread brownies again. That's the last of the Laura Secord milk chocolate spread.
Served that with a scoop of chocolate ice cream for tonight's desert.

I made Rice Krispie squares. It's so hot here, I don't want to turn on the oven and create completion for the air conditioning. It reached 40 on my deck today.

Last night LO and I made a pan of oatmeal mini-chocolate chip squares. They are pretty good, but they keep giving me heartburn...one of those things about being pregnant with twins.

I don't bake very often, but found some peanut butter disks on clearance at the Bulk Barn. They are slightly sweeter than regular peanut butter. I would appreciate any recipes or ideas anyone has on how to use them. They look like this:

[padyofurniture]

I wonder if you could use those as a cookie filling. Put a chocolate chip dough around them.

[BC Gal]

Ooooo I like that idea, thanks padyofurniture
