I found a few new Fall recipes to share.  It is such a gorgeous Fall day here in TN but it is cold out there!  🙂 
I am a fan of an old time favorite and this first recipe has just a little twist to it.  I have always made my Grilled cheese sandwiches out of bread of course but this sounds like a great idea and the girls and I are going to try it out tonight while Bill is on the road.

Harvest Medley Pie

1box Pillsbury® refrigerated pie crusts, softened as directed on box

To make lattice top, cut second crust into 1/2-inch-wide strips with pastry cutter. Place half of the strips across filling in pie plate. Place remaining strips crosswise across first strips. Trim ends of strips even with edge of bottom crust. Fold trimmed edge of bottom crust over ends of strips, forming a high stand-up rim. Seal and flute.

Bake 10 to 15 minutes longer or until apples are tender and crust is golden brown. Cool at least 2 hours before serving. Cover and refrigerate any remaining pie.

I hope you get a chance to try some of these!  I will keep looking for more!

God Bless,
