Apple Themed Party

[SusanK]

Does anyone have an Apple themed show flyer or a fall theme show flyer that I could see so I am not reinventing the wheel? Not sure if this is o.k. to ask, but I thought I would try it. I want do an apple show with microwave apple crumble and apple pizza in one of the Pampered Chef cookbooks. Also, I read somewhere that you can freeze apples (already seasoned) for a pie and then use them later -- does this really work?

Freezing Apples

My grandmother always froze apples for her winter pies in the summer. Everytime she made a pie during the summer or early fall she'd make double the filling and freeze the second half. That way she could have fresh from the tree apple pie in the dead of winter. Of course, now I wish I hadn't been the obnoxious teen that I was and had helped her out in the kitchen when she asked me to. I'd love to be able to reproduce her cooking in my own kitchen, but unfortunately she's not around to teach me now that I'm willing to learn.

I'm having an apple show tomorrow night! Here's how to freeze the pie filling!
Make Your Own
Apple Pie Kit:
Peel, core and slice 6 medium apples, then slice in half. Toss apples with 1/2 - 3/4 cup sugar, 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour and 3/4 teaspoon Cinnamon Plus® Spice Blend. Please in resealable plastic food storage bag and freeze. When ready to use, thaw apple mixture in the refrigerator, then place in a ready-made pie crust and bake.

Sorry I do not have a flyer - If I find something I will post it. Great idea for a show, especially for the fall! Here is a good recipe you may want to include. I fits well in the medium simple additions bowl - serve it with tortilla scoops or homemade pita triangles sprinkled with cinnamon sugar, and have it ready when the guests are arriving....

Apple Berry Salsa
2 medium granny smith apples
1 c. strawberries, sliced
1 kiwi, peeled and chopped
1 sm orange
2 T. packed brown sugar
2 T. apple jelly
Peel, core & slice apples. Apple/Peeler/Corer/Slicer. Cut apples into quarters; chop using Food Chopper. Slice strawberries with Egg Slicer plus. Chop kiwi with Food Chopper. Place fruit in sm. Batter bowl. Zest orange using Lemon Zester/Scorer. Juice orange with the Juicer. Add orange zest, orange juice, br. Sugar and jelly to fruit mixture. Mix gently.

Here are a couple of things. I have one also for a apple pie class that charges guests a fee. If anyone wants me to post it let me know.
