Apples and Dip! TTT # 12

 

Hello and welcome to my 12

Totally Tasty Tuesday!

A few weeks ago I showed you our peach tree.  Well it is finally that time of year for us to pick our apples. Each year our apple tree gets bigger and bigger with more and more apples on it.  This yeah we pick a lot of apples, which mean we have a lot of different apple recipes.

One of my families personal favorite recipes is our apple dip. We make it at least once a week, if not for company than for ourselves. It is super easy and delicious. The best part about it is you can change it up how ever you would like or whatever you have in your home.

Here is the recipe:

1 8 oz package Cream Cheese (softened)
1/4 cup Crunchy Peanut Butter
3 Tablespoons Maple Syrup (or to your likings)
1 teaspoon Vanilla

Blend together with a fork or a hand mixer for a smoother consistency. Serve with apple slices and enjoy!

Apples are one of the best fall snacks. They are like Gods natural candy!

The benefits to growing your own apples/fruits and vegetables are endless. Just to name a few, there are no pesticides or harsh chemicals on them. The amount of food grown will save you a lot of money and you will challenge your mind to be more creative with what food you do have! You will never regret growing a garden, it is amazing and so much fun!

What is your favorite fall snack?

Totally Tasty Tuesday # 10 Peaches

I hope everyone had a great weekend!

My thoughts and prayers went out to all of the people who lost their lives on 9/11 and for all of their family and friends. May God bless each and everyone of them.

This past weekend was amazingly beautiful.  Our peaches on our peach tree were perfectly ripe and ready to eat. We planted our peach tree about 4 1/2 years ago and it was a tiny twig.  We bought it on sale for about $10. look at it now!

We haven’t had time to make anything yet because we just got the peaches but don’t worry I will! :)  For now I would like to talk to show you what a $10 tree can get you.

If you think about the Cost and Worth of the peaches it is just pennies per peach. The best part about it is that they come back every year!

What do you grow in your garden?
