APPLES, NO PIE, A LA MODE

Steps:

• Heat a skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Add the ginger and apples to warm butter, squeeze a little lemon juice over the pan and saute 4 to 5 minutes.

Garnish whipped cream with a pinch more cinnamon or nutmeg.

BAKED POTATOES A LA MODE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Scrub the potatoes with a scrub brush. Prick them with a fork, then wrap tightly in foil, and bake for about 40 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat a wok or frying pan, add the oil, then add the broccoli and stir-fry over high heat for about 5 minutes, sprinkling with salt and crushed garlic as you go. Remove from the heat and spoon into a bowl.
• Cook red bell pepper in a little water until tender. Place in a blender with a few shakes of salt and a small clove of garlic. Puree the pepper until smooth and strain it into a small bowl so the skins are left behind in the strainer.
• Melt butter in the wok or frying pan. Add the mushrooms and salt lightly. Saute over medium heat for about 10 minutes, then spoon into a bowl.
• Assemble the toppings in bowls: the stir-fried broccoli, pepper puree, stir fried mushrooms, olives, tomato, scallions, pesto, grated cheese, and sour cream or cottage cheese.
• Slit each potato and use a fork to mash the insides with a little butter and/or milk to make them creamy (so the toppings will blend in more easily). Top as desired with various accompaniments.
