Canadian Living: falafel with mini pita

Pita recipe from R Fraser
thank you cbc.ca/bestrecipes    twitter   @BestRecipesEver








sweet chili chicken...I like the version at Joey restaurant

no recipe, just pan fry chicken, toss with sweet chili sauce (we canned our own).  Cut up chunks of cucumber,  long diagonal strips of green onion, and serve with deep fried wonton strips (students ate it over rice to make a meal, not an appy)

Canadian living ultimate chocolate cake - cupcakes. Learning how to make a buttercream rose

very impressive for first time decorating!!

Apple turnovers - use pastry from Australian Meat Pie

Apple Pie filling  - 4 apples, cored, peeled and sliced.  Put in a large casserole dish, sprinkle wih 200 ml sugar + 5 mL sugar.  Microwave 3 minutes, stirring after one minute (1+1+1).  Stir in 50 mL sugar that has 30 mL mini tapioca in it (or it will clump).  Microwave another 3 minutes, stirring every minute.  Cool in an ice bath.  Thank you fruit and veg school program for the free ambrosia apples! 


 ice in loser bowl. stir for quick cooling

 roll on parchment so pastry does not stick to counter!
