Savory Apple Recipes
My family loves apples, whether they’re in season or not. Though red delicious isn’t allowed in the house, every other variety gets devoured. Their absolute favorite time is when Azure Standard has their organic juicing apples in season and I can buy 20 pounds of delicious juiciness at a time! They practically disappear….
