Don't laugh, but I actually had SB legal (mostly) apple pie last weekend that someone brought to a potluck. It was a purchased frozen pie, made by Mother Natures, purchased at Wild Oats. Made with whole wheat flour, sweetened only with fruit juice. The only illegal thing about it is that it is thickened with some corn starch. But it was the best purchased apple pie I've ever had -- just like homemade. It will be on my Thanksgiving table.
Okay, on to my recipe, which was my potluck contribution:
Asparagus Salad
1 1/2 pounds asparagus, tough ends removed, sliced on the diagonal in 1-2" slices
1/2 onion, sliced thin
Dressing: 1/4 c fresh squeezed lemon
1/4 c olive oil
Simmer vegetables for 5-6 minutes, then remove from heat, drain, toss with dressing and refrigerate. Before serving, add:
1/2 c fresh grated parmesan cheese
1 c grape tomatos (or sliced cherry tomatos)
1/4 c pine nuts
