My Texas Table- My 20 Favorite Apple Recipes!

Happy Wednesday friends!!!  

I hope you're having a great week thus far? I usually post my newsletter on Sundays, but it's been pretty busy around our house. Between visiting family and working extra hours at work, I'm finding it hard to get everything done. Thank goodness the weekend is just a few short days away. 

Saturday is also the first official day of 🍁🍂 Fall, so I plan on staying home, decorating for fall and catching up on some much needed rest. The weather is beginning to change here in North Texas. We're still in the upper 80's and low 90's, but honestly, I think the 100 degree temps are far behind us.

Even though the fall weather hasn't officially arrived, I’m still choosing to embrace the season. When I think of Fall 🍎 apples and pumpkins come to mind, so to kick off  apple season, today's newsletter is filled with 20 of my favorite apple recipes!  

French Coconut Pie - Oh My!

A simple baked coconut - vanilla - custard pie with a sweet, buttery, crackly topping. 

Happy Sunday friends! Today I have a delicious pie recipe to share with you. I found this French Coconut Pie recipe on Facebook and I've been obsessed with it ever since. I could eat this pie every single day and never tire of it! So many levels of deliciousness are packed inside this coconut pie. 

A crackly, crunchy topping and a ooey-gooey, buttery, coconut - vanilla center. This pie is incredible to say the least. It's been quite some time that I found a pie recipe that totally knocks my socks off, but this one did and it's sooooooooooooo simple to make. The best part is you probably have all the ingredients right in your pantry.

My Texas Table August Newsletter - Back to School Ideas

Happy Monday friends!!!  

Today was my youngest son's first day back-to-school. It's a bittersweet moment in our house having two kids that have graduated and one left in high school. I knew this day would come, but I can honestly say it sure did fly by. Last week was also my first week back to school & work (child nutrition), so there's been a lot of adjustments in our daily routine. 

Since everyone is either back-to-school or soon to be heading back, I thought my August newsletter should be about all things Back-to-School!  As your kids head back to another school year your schedules will go back to being a bit more hectic, so in today's newsletter, I will be sharing Lunch Box Ideas, Quick & Easy Breakfast Options and Simple Dinner Meals helping you ease back into your dinner routine. I hope y'all find something you like. ❤
