Dressing For Cooked Carrots

Submitted by Kelli Liu – Nevada

Cook together in pan or skillet till bubbly:

2 Tablespoons butter 2 Tablespoons prepared mustard (I use yellow)

Cooked carrots have been a long time family favorite and this sauce is just a nice variation to a favorite dish
Fried Apple (side dish)

6 medium/large Granny Smith apples (peeled, quartered and cut into 12 pieces each apple)
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1/3 to ½ cups raisins
¾ to 1 cup apple juice (or enough to just cover apples as they cook)
2 to 3 tablespoons oil

Heat large fry pan with oil. Combine prepared apples, cinnamon and cloves in a mixing bowl- stirring till apples are coated.

Dump apple mixture into heated & oiled fry pan. Fry apples on med/high heat gently turning with a spatula so as not to break-up apples. Once apples are slightly browned (10 to 12 min) add raisins, stir. Pour apple juice over apples in fry pan (just enough to cover apples). Continue cooking on med/high heat gently stirring apples with a spatula so as not to break up apples. Stir and cook for 15 min or until apples are tender and juice becomes cloudy. Do Not Cover during this process. Turn heat off and leave in pan until apples are cooled. Mixture will darken in color and thicken. Transfer to a serving bowl or casserole dish. Cover and refrigerate when completely cooled. Serve warm or cold

Options: Add dried cranberries with or instead of raisins.

Stir in walnuts after apples are done cooking but before completely cooled.
