Tonight's Menu

With all the apples in our backyard being ripe and ready I figured now is a great time to make some homemade apple crisp. Along with all the tomatoes my parents decided to bring over I made some homemade salsa. Just adding to the wife resume, right?  

The apple crisp was super easy and actually had all the ingredients in my house. 

5-6 apples

1/2 tsp cinnamon

3 Tbs brown sugar

Preheat oven to 350

Peel and dice the apples 

Mix together the cinnamon and brown sugar

Sprinkle mixture over apples

Topping

1 cup brown sugar

1 cup if oats

1/2 cup flour

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1/2 cup of butter (softened)

Mix together the dry ingredients

Cut in butter until the mixture becomes crumbly

Evenly coat the mixture on top of the apples

Bake for 35-40

Cool

Top with ice cream or cool whip

ENJOY! 

So easy I was able to recall that from memory!

The salsa was equally as easy. In this house we enjoy spicy foods and so the salsa is probably a bit spicier than most people like. I used...

1 purple onion

1 regular onion

2 tomatoes 

1 jalepeno 

1 Tbs of a seasoning called tajin that I brought back from Mexico

1 Tbs sugar

Put the onions and jalepeno in the chopper and put them in a big bowl

Put the tomatoes in the chopper and added them 

Added the seasoning and sugar

Mixed it all up and put it in the fridge. 

I had just a little bit, but boy was it spicy!!

I think it will taste better when it's cold and we can eat it with tacos and other Mexican dishes. 

I can't wait to dig in!! 

Until next time...
