Apple Crepe Filling

I love crepes, and now that it isn't fresh fruit season any longer it can be hard to think of yummy dessert fillings. Last time I made them I made this and it was delish.

Apple Crepe Filling

1 apple (I used a granny smith, but any apple that is good for cooking will be great.)
cinnamon
sugar


Slice up the apple and put in a frying pan on medium heat. Sprinkle the apple with cinnamon and sugar, to your preference. Put inside a crepe and top with whipped cream.

Also delicious on ice cream

Sloppy-Joes

Sloppy Joes has got to be one of the most unappetizing names for a food. Doesn't make me want to make it...but take my word for it, this recipe is YUMMY.

Every once in awhile when I bake bread I set aside some dough to do scones that night. To go along with the honey-butter dessert scones I make Sloppy Joe filling and fill some scones with it to make a complete meal.

Most recipes I have used leave something to be desired - but this was really good and easy and didn't need to simmer for 2 hours! Bonus.

• 1 pound lean ground beef
• 1/4 cup chopped onion
• 1/4 cup chopped green bell pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon prepared yellow mustard
• 3/4 cup ketchup
• 3 teaspoons brown sugar
• salt to taste
• ground black pepper to taste

Directions

1. In a medium skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef, onion, and green pepper; drain off liquids.
2. Stir in the garlic powder, mustard, ketchup, and brown sugar; mix thoroughly. Reduce heat, and simmer for 30 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

NOTES: I didn't have enough ketchup, so I substituted some barbecue sauce and left out the brown sugar. I also added a little bit of water to make it a little more saucy.

Yummy Hot Sandwich Spread

My sister in law made these yummy sandwiches a while back when our family was at Bear Lake! It's really simple- just make the spread and use it on your favorite rolls with whatever combination of meat/cheese and you will have yourself a delicious sandwich!
Ingredients:
1 1/2 tsp poppy seeds
1 1/2 tsp prepared mustard (regular or dijon, not the powdered)
1 cup butter, softened
1/2 tsp worcestershire
1 tsp onion powder
Directions:
Combine all ingredients. Spread inside and on top of dinner rolls, and then top with meat/cheese. Bake sandwiches (closed, not open faced) in 375 degree oven for 15 minutes or until tops are golden brown and cheese is melted!
*Note: I usually half the recipe or even 1/4 for just my husband and I. If you have a large group of people then make the whole recipe.
