Tales from the Kitchen

I found a new use for my ginger infused cranberry chutney. Blending it with about an equal amount of yogurt and a splash of orange blossom water makes for a tart, still a bit spicy, yet mellowed smoothie. I should mix one up for tomorrow’s breakfast.

My husband also found an easy dessert called a dump cake. Despite the name and description, I strove for perfection the first time, spending way too much time spreading out each ingredient. I mean, come on, it’s called dump cake for a reason.

Today I heated the bottommost layer of canned pie filling, gave the sticky mess a quick smoothing swirl, and piled on the rest as directed. I’m sure the results will be no lest tasty. This one’s lemon once again but options are endless.

I should learn how to better photograph food...
LOL

Have you heard of dump cakes? Should I try strawberry components next?
