The Kitchen, My Favorite Place To Be!

I've had this deep heart shaped dish for years and never used it until this past weekend.

It made a wonderful deep dish Apple Crumb pie!
All I do is peel, core and slice my apples. put them in a pot with a little water cook until warm all the way through. I add a cup of sugar and a tsp. of apple pie spice. Thicken with corn startch and pour in my pie shell. Last but not least I sprinkle with a brown sugar topping. I used about 8 to 10 large apples for this one.

With the extra dough from the pie crust I make cinnamon sticks just like my Mama use to. All you do is roll the dough out thin and sprinkle cinnamon sugar on top. Put it in the oven @ 350 for about 12 to 15 minutes. They are yummy and they bring back wonderful memories of my Mama in the kitchen.

Curry Chicken & Broccoli

1 Large bag of frozen broccoli
1 whole chicken or 4 large chicken breasts cut up and cooked
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 can cream of chicken
1 cup of mayo
1 tsp of lemon juice
1 tsp curry powder
1 cup of shredded extra sharp cheddar cheese
Optional Topping: Bread crumbs and melted butter

Mix all ingredients in a large bowl and put in a prepared large casserole dish. Put in the oven @ 350 for about 1 hour and 1/2 . I covered mine with tin foil and at the last 20 minutes or so I take off the foil to brown the bread crumbs.
