Remember the children’s song, “Can she bake a cherry pie, Billy Boy, Billy Boy?” Cherry Crisp takes the fuss out of making the pie dough for a quick and easy dessert.  Frozen or fresh bing cherries makes a sweeter pie than the summer pie cherries.

Cherries provide some Vitamin C which is lessen when cooked.  Try adding  fresh cherries in a recipe for salsa to be served on meats and poultry.  Instead of wine use cherry juice.  Dried cherries can be used in place or raisins or cranberries.
