“Homemade Fruit Leather”

“Homemade Fruit Leather”
Fruit roll-ups were a big thing when I was growing up. There were so many iterations at one point that I was in pure fruit candy bliss. Then there were the healthy versions that we’d always find at the health food store. They were called “fruit leather,” because they were thicker and made out of pure fruit I suppose… not the other nasty bits that were probably in the fruit roll-ups. My editor told me that they needed a few more recipes for my book Food Heroes a little while ago for “layout” reasons. And I’m so glad I did. I may or may not have eaten the entire tray. I may have. I did. You start by dicing up the strawberries into small pieces. Then in a pot they go, with a bit of water. And a squirt of lemon juice. Then you stew them. Next you place some plastic over a sheet tray and brush it with olive oil. The stewed fruit should look like this, at which point you transfer it to a blender. Taste it and if you think it could be a lot sweeter add some sugar. Like so. It will peel right off.

Cheesecake Stuffed Strawberries These aren't anything complicated. With five ingredients, they take only a few minutes to put together. In fact, these were probably the least time-intensive food at my Cheesecake Extravaganza. Yet, I had more than a few people come up and proclaim their love for the finger food. You don't have to throw a cheesecake party to serve these....I imagine they'd be welcomed just about anytime! Next time, I'll make more... this was the first food to go at the Cheesecake Extravaganza, and with good reason!

Chocolate Spice Dipped Fruit with Sprinkles recipe: Valentine’s Day What is it about the simplicity of chocolate covered fruit that makes us all smile? With Valentine’s day around the corner I wanted to share one of the most popular treats – with a few of my little twists. I always use the best chocolate and I had tons of fun with the toppings as you can see. There is so much more than strawberries out there when it comes to dipping. OK, so these mandarins are not on sticks (they kept sliding off) but they sure were tasty anyway and easy to hold in your fingers when dipping. Some of the chocolate I spiced up with ginger, cardamom and cinnamon for a playful flavor twist. You know what is the best part about chocolate dipped fruit? My favorites were the blueberries. What is your favorite fruit to dip ? Chocolate Dipped Fruit on a Stick Ingredients Your favorite Chocolate (about 1 ounce per person) Your favorite fruits: dried, fresh etc. Method Wash and dry all fruit.
