Food and WhineFood & Whine is where I collect great recipes - ones I've tried and ones I hope to try.

You'll want to use the fresh frozen raspberries (the ones without sugar or syrup). My first batch made a total of 11 (4oz) jars. I used 2 jalapeno peppers and the "heat" was mild. I'll definitely increase to 3 jalapeno peppers the next time I make it. Use this jam over...http://www.fortysomething.ca/2008/06/raspberry_jalapeno_jam.php Sensational Turtle Brownies- June 27, 2008 This recipe comes from Rose Murray's A Year In My Kitchen cookbook and is a brownie to.die.for. To really go all out, use the brownies as a sundae base and top with chocolate, coffee or vanilla ice cream and warm chocolate sauce!

This dish is a yummy combination of chicken with dried cranberries, apple and walnuts and it's low cal too! If you'd like it to go, use it as a sandwich filling.

Unfortunately, that means that there isn't exactly a written recipe for it anywhere that I know of. But ... it's too yummy and easy not to share anyway, so here it is. This is a lovely summer pasta salad that I love to have in the fridge for lunch or as a side for whatever we throw on the BBQ.
