Crockpot Applesauce (easily converts to no-sugar-added)My answer for using up the fall harvest of apples is crockpot applesauce. There are many versions of the recipe out there, but experimenting over time, I have come to like this one best. It will keep about one week refrigerated, or several months frozen.

Crockpot Baked PotatoesTechnically these are not "baked" as in oven-baked. But this method yields surprisingly close results to the traditional baked potato. I had strong misgivings when I first came across this recipe, but when I tried it I was convinced it's the way to go for a fuss-free "baked" spud. The texture is much better than microwaved. The length… |

Overnight Refrigerator Yeast RollsRefrigerator yeast rolls are the answer to busy days and holiday dinners. Divide the roll making process into two days and three steps: make, shape and bake! This is based on a recipe from bhg.com, which has a few variations using this method (see "Useful Links" below). I stayed fairly close to the original recipe, though lazy me,… |

Fat is reduced in the sautéing of vegetables and by substituting chicken for beef. But there are plenty of flavors going on here so you won't ask "Where's the beef?" Based on a recipe from Patti LaBelle's Light… |
