Apple Recipe help!?

[vfem]

I have this lovely caramel apple jame I want to cook back down and use as a glaze for meat... maybe I should add onions and then add it to the meat?

I definitely am thinking my apple cranberry stuffing is the way to go. Kinda up in the air over the rhubarb now... and rhubarb does not grow well down here, so its expensive and I paid nearly $2 for a stalk to make dressing with it!

I am just unsure how to tackle the dressing!?

I make a glaze for pork or turkey/chicken out of cranberry sauce (whole - not jellied)) and onion soup mix - you could probably use applesauce or just cook the apples down to make "applesauce" sauce with onions and spices added and use it as a glaze.

the sauce does not come out sweet at all - it is definately a savory type glaze when cooked. Maybe a mix of cranberry ad apple and the onion mix? you could chop it all in a food processor, cook it down a bit, first, perhaps, then use it on the meat.

the cranberries make the meat tender, even if it is a tough piece of meat, because of the acid in them - apples would do the same thing, I imagine.

Oh how I love cranberries... The sweet and tart... then the onions... oh I'm seeing it... well... I hope to be tasting it!​

what I do is put the meat into a baking dish, then just put the sauce over it and bake at 350-400 (depending on the meat thickness and/or how long you want to cook it - slower is better) then cook until it is done.

goes well with squash or yams - or stuffing mmmmmmm

I would hate to take your recipe... I am trying to come up with my own... if I win, I wouldn't feel right taking credit... I guess I should have just said 'recipe brain storming' but that does sound SOOOO fabulous!!!

You can always put your own twist on it and make it your own.
good luck with the contest

Turkey cutlets done like chicken Cordon Bleu?

Pounded flat, rolled and stuffed with apples and rhubarb, onions, herbs and a slice of sharp cheddar cheese? Bake, glaze with the dressing?

Something with crab and apple? Crabapple?

(you could call it Crapple

)

Some kind of pita sandwich with apple-cucumber slaw? Like a falafel pita.

Apple/rhubarb enchiladas?

Stuffed apples? Hollow out, stuff with ground turkey, rice, nuts, herbs?


FaykokoWV, that recipe sounds delicious! We love curry!

ground chicken or turkey-----made into sausage patties with apples? Just trying to keep thinking of options.

What about a Apple Cheese casserole? My sister made one several years ago for Thanksgiving and it was great.

...maybe add a little ham or something in there to make it a one dish meal??

ETA: What about the Apple Cheese casserole served under or on top of a smoked pork chop?

This recipe is a "tried & true" in my house! I've had it for over 25 years - don't remember the source.

Pork and Apples with Stuffing – serves 12

4-lb. pork tenderloin slices
2 20oz cans sliced cooked apples or poach fresh apples until tender
1/2c brown sugar
6 c herb stuffing mix
1/2c chopped celery
1/4c melted butter
3 TB minced onion
1 t salt
1/2t sage
2 c beef broth

Trim fat from pork slices, brown slices in a little oil in skillet. Place slices as needed for each serving in a baking dish.

Combine apples and sugar. Spoon over pork slices. Combine stuffing, celery, butter, onion, salt, sage and broth. Press stuffing into a 1/2c measure, unmold onto apple slices. Cover.

May freeze at this point. Bake from frozen state at 400 for 1 1/4hours or until pork
tests done. Bake from unfrozen state at 375 for 1 hour.

Makes 2 casseroles of 6 servings each.

I can't think of anything with fish- anybody have an idea? Perhaps a salmon apple thing? Flounder? I still like the crab and apple combo.... as a crabcake?
