This recipe makes a single pie crust – (for the types of recipes where you would not use a top crust) It’s great for pumpkin, pecan and crumb topped pies! I’m showing here where I made it in my KitchenAid 5-cup Chopper, but you could also make it in a food processor, stand mixer or by hand!
Italian Style Chicken Salad
I use a chopper or food processor to chop this chicken salad up lickety-split! The tastiness comes from a few flavorful friends in the pantry: pitted kalamata olives (but any olive would work) and giardiniera; an Italian style mix of pickled vegetables.
Horseradish Whipped Cream
Savory Whipped Cream! Use this light and fluffy horseradish whipped cream anywhere you’d use horseradish sauce! It’s great with any kind of roasted beef, delicious with ham and roasted vegetables. Also makes a great dip for shrimp and all sorts of other things!

A delicious twist on your regular honey mustard dressing! Pumpkin adds a touch of wonderful fall flavor!
Savory Roasted Butternut Squash Hummus
Butternut squash gives this hummus a gorgeous warm color and wonderful subtle flavor. The cumin and smoked paprika pair perfectly with the roasted butternut squash hummus.

Take advantage of the bounty of garden tomatoes right now! Make a classic tomato sandwich on toast with juicy sliced tomatoes, homemade mayonnaise and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. mmm!
Make Ahead Whipped Cream (Stabilized)
You can stabilize whipped cream by adding a little instant pudding mix to the heavy cream. It will help to keep your whipped cream from weeping and deflating – so you can whip it up to a day in advance! This recipe also makes a great whipped cream frosting and I use as a substitute for Cool Whip.
