I have been cooking some of my old favorite entrees, but have been freshening them up with new side dishes. I had seen Erin’s Food Files’ applesauce in my google reader and knew that it would be a great way to kick off the fall and apple season. This tasted way better than store bought applesauce. It was fresh and light and chunky which I loved.
