Monday Morning Review: 15 Apple Recipes Perfect for Fall

October 6, 2014 by Shari Eckstrom 24 Comments

MR1 This past week we picked all of our apples. It was a little earlier than we had planned. It came down to leaving them and letting the Elk have a party or picking them early when they were still a bit tart. Since Tim and I both like tart apples and we wanted a few to enjoy before the Elk ate every last one, we harvested. 

Even with the few that we donated to the elk our three trees will give us plenty of apples to enjoy all year. I will put some in cold storage, make applesauce, freeze apple slices, and make apple pie filling. In honor of harvesting, this week’s review celebrates apples. Here are 15 Apple Recipes Perfect for the Fall Season. …

Blueberry Balsamic Glazed Chicken

Blueberry Balsamic Glazed Chicken

BLUEBERRY BALSAMIC GLAZED CHICKEN

Have you ever had one of those days when nothing goes right? I’m not talking about a minor issue here or there. I’m speaking of a full blown “this is so comical, there must be a camera somewhere” kinda day. That about sums up what the last 24 hours have been like.

 All week I have been preparing to go on vacation and have been working diligently to get all my ducks in a row before I head out. Yesterday started out fairly normal. I was up early, had my cup of coffee and was ready to wrap up my posts for the rest of the week and give myself a nice little pat on the back for a job well done. That smug sentiment didn’t last long enough for me to finish my second cup of coffee.

Blueberry Balsamic Glazed Chicken Rain, thunder, lightning storm…boom! Out goes the internet and phone. No service of any kind for the rest of the day. This is when living in the tulies is not advantageous. I whined to the walls (hubby wasn’t yet home), stomped around the house, and sulked. I eventually gave in to defeat and let it go. Some things are beyond our control. Life doesn’t revolve around whether I can get on the internet or not and a post can be late or postponed. It is not the end of the world. Ultimately a good lesson for me to digest. On the plus side, my house has never been cleaner!

Sweet blueberries, maple syrup and caramelized onions combine with balsamic vinegar, fresh rosemary and oregano to create a rich savory sauce for this delectable chicken dish. A flavorful combination that may just leave you licking your fingers as well as your plate.
