Apple pies

Maybe this is a little late because I made these in August, but it's still worth sharing. We were putting on a baby shower for a friend and looking for new and intersting finger foods. I found a recipe for mini apple pies. Basically, they're the same as all other apple pies, you just divide the crust into muffin tins and dice the apples. I used both red and green apples and left the skins on. They were wonderful!



Also for that baby shower were prosciutto and egg cups, a great appitizer. Lay prosciutto (thinly sliced deli ham) in muffin cups, break an egg into each one, and season with basil and pepper. Bake about 20 minutes or until the egg is solid.

And as a nod to my last post about pasta and using pretty vegetables, here is such a dinner in the making:
