1 whole grain english muffin toasted

1 oz. brie sliced thin

Toast the english muffin. While it is still piping hot, top each side with the brie, then the yummy jelly followed by a sprinkling of the nuts. This is a hearty, simple yet sophisticated breakfast on the go or to slowly savor with a cup of coffee or tea.

2 lb. pork roast

Salt and pepper

1 TB chopped fresh rosemary

2 cloves minced garlic

1/4 cup Beach Plum Jelly

 

Preheat the oven to 375. Meanwhile season the pork roast with salt, pepper, rosemary and garlic. Bake until juices run clear, about forty minutes. (use a meat thermometer to test for doneness) Remove from the oven and put the broiler on. Top the roast with 1/4 cup or more of Beach Plum Jelly and place under the broiler until the jelly browns and carmelizes. Allow to stand for ten minutes before slicing. Use the leftovers to make a delicious sandwich the next day. Serve with mayo and another TB of Beach Plum Jelly along with some lettuce and onion. So delicious! Feel free to substitute any other jelly from the Walters product line!

 

Cranberry Apricot Phyllo Triangles with Goat Cheese

Recipe courtesy Susannah Locketti

Food & Lifestyles personality discovered by the Food Network

24 sheets phyllo dough at room temperature

Cranberry Apricot Chutney

Crumbled Goat Cheese

Olive Oil Cooking Spray

Parchment Paper

Honey, toasted chopped walnuts & fresh chopped parsley (optional)

 

Preheat oven to 400 degrees and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.

 

Working quickly lay one piece of phyllo dough out and spray with olive oil spray.

 

Top the first sheet with a second sheet of phyllo and spray again. Top with a third sheet and spray a final time.

 

HINT: (Be sure to cover phyllo you are not working with to prevent it from drying out)

 

Cut the layered phyllo lengthwise to form three long strips. (a pizza cutter works great for this)

 

At the bottom of the strip top with 1 tsp of chutney and 1 teaspoon of goat cheese.

 

Fold the strip up like you are folding an American flag forming a triangle shape when done. Spray with olive oil spray and repeat this process until all phyllo sheets are used up. You should end up with 24 triangles when done. Bake for 10-15 minutes until browned. Place on a serving platter and drizzle lightly with honey and top with chopped nuts and parsley. (this is an optional step) These make a beautiful hors d'ouevre for everyday entertaining. Feel free to substitute Brie for the goat cheese. It is just as delicious!
