An update...

So, after using the oven all day and leaving it in all night, I went to check to see how the fruit roll-ups turned out. They looked just like Darby's....but when I tried to roll them up the middle of the pan was mushy and only the outer edges were hardened enough for the fruit roll up consistency :(

I do think the flub was my fault- I probably had too much on the pan (if you make them, make sure you spread it thin enough!) I will say though, the edges of the fruit-roll ups turned out perfectly and VERY yummy!!! H even loved it. I made a peach (added a handful of grapes), triple berry (blackberry, raspberry & blueberry) and strawberry (didnt turn out). I didn't add any sugar to these and the flavor of the peach and triple berry were awesome, yum!

I will definitely use this recipe again, just make sure I spread it thin enough or as my mom said, "Put a food dehydrator on your Christmas list this year!" Haha, yeah I think I will!

Do you have a food Hydrator that you love? Recommend yours please :)

The Pioneer Woman

I love The Pioneer Woman's site- mostly for her cooking recipes! Tonight, I made the Sundried Tomato Pasta Salad. OMG YUuuummmmm!!! I didnt add the olives because H hates them and no halved cherry tomatoes. This was delish, paired with some grilled chicken, I suggest you try it out, it's so easy and yummy!

July 4th & Apple Pie


4th of July is just around the corner.  What's more american than cookouts and apple pie?!  I have to confess something...I have never liked apple pie until I found this recipe.  This apple pie recipe is amazing, its like eating a caramel apple wrapped in a flaky crust (and by flaky crust I mean cheating and using the pillsbury pie crust ;).  I think this will be on my menu for 4th of July for sure, and the best part, its sooooo easy to make!!!
