Day 5 Progress

This evening I finally baked whole wheat English muffins.  I have been meaning to do that for a couple weeks.  Breakfast tomorrow... eggs Benedict!  Let's see how it turns out.
 
I also cooked a large batch of quinoa.  I had some for supper, I'll put some in containers in the freezer for a quick side dish, and I want to try baking with it tomorrow.


While I had the oven on I figured I should bake an apple pie.  I have numerous bags of apple pie filling mix in my freezer, and before Christmas I had pulled pie crust out of the freezer which now needed to be used up.  This fall my brothers girlfriend and I prepped a whole pile of apples for apple pies and put them into the freezer to make pies with.  They have a couple apple trees with more apples than they knew what to do with.  I just had to thaw the filling and cook it slightly so the uncooked juices wouldn't turn the crust soggy, dump it into the crust, put the top crust on and bake it.  Making the apple pie filling together this fall was a great social activity.
