Recipe Ingredients
2 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup enriched corn meal - (aunt jemima o, r quaker)
1 tsp salt (optional)
1/3 cup margarine or butter, plus...
2 tbsp margarine or butter
1/3 cup vegetable shortening
6 oz shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup ice water
8 cup peeled, sliced apples - (about 8 me, dium apples)
2/3 cup sugar
3/4 tsp cinnamon
Recipe Preparation
Combine 2 cups flour, corn meal and salt. Cut in 1/3 cup margarine
and shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in cheese.
Add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, stirring lightly until mixture
forms a ball. Divide dough into 2 parts, 1 slightly larger; shape
each to form ball. Wrap securely in plastic wrap or wax paper; chill
about 30 minutes. Roll large ball on lightly floured surface to form
11-inch circle. Fit loosely into 9-inch pie plate; trim. Roll
remaining dough to form 12-inch square. Cut into 12 x 3/4-inch
strips.*
Heat oven to 400 F. Combine remaining 1/3 cup flour, apples, sugar
and cinnamon; spoon into crust. Dot with remaining 2 tablespoons
margarine. Weave strips atop filling to make a lattice crust. Trim
even with outer rim of pie plate. Fold lower crust over strips; seal
and flute. Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until crust is light golden
brown, shielding edges with aluminum foil if necessary. Cool
slightly.
*NOTE: To make a double crust pie, roll remaining dough to form
10-inch circle instead of cutting strips. Prepare filling as
directed. Place top crust over filling; trim. Turn edges under;
flute. Cut slits in top crust to allow steam to escape.

Food Tips of the Week
Diet hints and tipsIn deciding on a diet, it is essential to attempt to lower your consumption of fat, salt and refined carbohydrates.
Some low carbohydrate diet guidlines:
* Know what is in your food Be sceptical of sales blurb that claims 'low carb' - check the actual nutritional information on the reverse of the can or package. Many are only a little lower and in some cases still greater than a competitors standard brand. Also, beware of 'low sugar' and 'low fat' labels - 'low sugar' does not always mean 'low carb' - usually the carbs are just the same.
* Make reduced carb breadcrumbs for breaded foods. Although you may be able to buy reduced carb bread crumbs, you may also make them by simply using reduced carbohydrate bread. All you have to do is toast the reduced carbohydrate bread in a gas or electric oven on a cookie sheet. Once it is quite hard and crispy, process it in your food mill. Store in an airtight container.
Superfoods containing carotenes
(includes parsley, mangos and tomato ketchup)
These fruits and vegetables are rich in alpha-carotene and beta-carotene believed by nutritionalists to play a major part in helping prevent cancer, spefically cancer of the stomach and lesophagus. A good number also help you lose weight, so are ideal for including in your weight loss program.
