Rhubarb/Strawberry Crisp





Thanks for the emails.......as promised..........Enjoy!!



This recipe was originally called Rhubarb Honey Crisp but I threw in 1 or 2 cups of  strawberries because..................... 

                                                1.  I love strawberries
                                                2.  I love strawberries
                                                3.  I love strawberries
                                                





Rhubarb/Strawberry Honey Crisp



                      5 cups                                        Chopped Rhubarb
                     1/2 cup                                       Liquid Honey
                     1 tbsp                                         All Purpose Flour
                     1 tsp                                           Cinnamon
                     1/2 tsp                                        Ginger (optional) ... I didn't use it

                 
                   Topping

                   1-1/2 cups                                    Large flake rolled oats
                   1/3 cup                                         brown sugar
                   1/3 cup                                         liquid honey
                   1/4 cup                                         melted butter
                   1 tsp                                             cinnamon
                   1/2 tsp                                          salt


In mixing bowl stir together rhubarb, honey, flour, cinnamon and ginger (if using) until well combined.  Spoon into greased 8 cup baking dish.

Toppiing:  In same mixing bowl stir together oats, sugar, honey, butter, cinnamon and salt; sprinkle evenly over rhubarb

Bake in 375 degree F oven for 40 to 45 minutes or until fruit is tender and topping is browned.

** Easy, peasy recipe but such a fabulous summer dessert.... I served mine warm with french vanilla ice cream.  I also didn't use the total amount of honey called for... I used just under 1/2 cup because I added the strawberries which were sweet and because I like a tiny bit of tartness from the rhubarb.

A Morning in The Village






This morning I took a ride on the "Zen" bike through the village and this is what I saw.............




















An absolutely gorgeous morning.  This was one of those days in which the gratitude cup was running over.  I sometimes forget how lucky I am to live here and to have the opportunity to experience this beautiful part of my world.

I just picked some rhubarb from the garden for a strawberry/rhubarb crisp I'm going to make .......this recipe is super delicious so if anyone wants it feel free to email me as I'd be happy to share

Both of the girl's boyfriends will be here for dinner tonight so I  I'll be throwing on my Martha Stewart hat
