The kids are off to camp and won\u2019t be home for days. That means I can take it easy on the cooking as well. Except when the husband demands for his own food cravings, then I\u2019m on food patrol again. But I got none of those today. I opened up a food magazine and started reading on berries and get some chill time.<\/p>\n<p>I wasn\u2019t planning on doing some baking, but inspiration hit me with those berries. I figured I really can\u2019t put down my chef\u2019s hat just yet; well, not when my cooking instincts take over me. I would probably end up eating half of this dish myself before the kids could try it. Or, I might just make them a fresh batch. This one\u2019s for the husband and I to enjoy tonight.<\/p>\n<p>But before I go head into the kitchen to do the cooking, I want to share what I read about berries. I believe this is what would convince you to incorporate them more into your diet. It\u2019s really good for the following reasons:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Fresh or frozen berries are best. They don\u2019t lose their nutritional value anyway you have it.<\/li>\n<li>When used in baking, it mixes well as a garnish in cakes, muffins and cookies.<\/li>\n<li>Berries are naturally high in Vitamin C and a rich source of antioxidants. On this case, more of it is better for the body.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Ingredients<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>4 large cooking apples, peeled and sliced or coarsely chopped<\/li>\n<li>1 1\/2 to 2 cups raspberries<\/li>\n<li>1 cup blueberries<\/li>\n<li>1\/3 cup granulated sugar<\/li>\n<li>1 tablespoon cold butter, cut in small pieces<\/li>\n<li>1\/4 cup melted butter<\/li>\n<li>1\/3 cup brown sugar<\/li>\n<li>2\/3 cup sifted all-purpose flour<\/li>\n<li>dash salt<\/li>\n<li>1\/4 teaspoon baking soda<\/li>\n<li>2\/3 cup quick cooking rolled oats<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Description<\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li>Begin by preheating the oven to 325\u00b0F. Next, rub some butter on a 11 x 17 inch baking dish.<\/li>\n<li>In a separate bowl, mix together sliced apples, berries and granulated sugar. Give it a little toss. Add in some small pieces of cold butter. Pour this into the baking dish.<\/li>\n<li>Next, combine the brown sugar, flour, salt, baking soda and rolled oats with the melted butter. Toss this mixture and then sprinkle over evenly over the fruits.<\/li>\n<li>Take the baking dish into oven and bake for 45 to 55 minutes. Check to see if the fruits are tender and the toppings turned brown.<\/li>\n<li>Best served straight out of the oven.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today is a take it easy kind of day.
