Monday Morning in the Kitchen: Strawberry-Rhubarb Crisp


I love the ease of crisps.  "Easy as pie" should be replaced with "Easy as crisp." 


Strawberry-Rhubarb Crisp 

Preheat oven to 375°.  Combine: 4-5 cups sliced strawberries, 4-5 cups diced rhubarb, 3/4 cup sugar, 5 tablespoons flour, and 1 teaspoon lemon zest.  Place in a 9 x 13 pan.  

Mix together:  3/4 cup flour, 1 cup brown sugar, 1 cup oats, and 1 tablespoon cinnamon.  Cut in 3/4 cup butter.  Place mixture over fruit, the top with 3/4 cup chopped walnuts. Bake for 45 minutes.  Serve warm.

    I just had a delicious peach/plum crisp last night made by my 12 y.o. cousin. And while I've never made one myself, I've lightly supervised my kids making one...yes easy as crisp indeed!

    I never think to add strawberries to the rhubarb crisps I make.

    Oh, goodness, that looks so delicious, Kristi! One of these days I'll be able to have some carbs in my life again, just not too many! I'll be pinning this for future reference.

    I never think to add rhubarb to my strawberry crisp or to anything I make! It does look yummy but try as he may have my Dad could never get me to like rhubarb and I still don't.

    Yum, yum, yum. I've never had rhubarb before, but I may have to try it. I've noticed them selling it at the grocery store lately.

Six Sentence Story: Twist

  An antique typewriter Each week, Denise at Girlie on the Edge blog posts a prompt word and invites bloggers to come up with a Six Sentence Story. It's a fun challenge for writers, and a delight for readers. Go over to her blog to read what others have written, and feel free to post your own story, too! This week's prompt: twist. ********************************* The kids who moved in next door were big kids--much older than her 3-year-old self--but they might be fun to play with, and as they were coming towards her, the idea of them being new friends seemed at least possible. She was rather shy, but she understood the basics of making friends, so when those neighbors crowded all around her and asked her what her name was, she didn't hesitate to answer.  She thought she had spoken loudly enough, but apparently her shyness got the best of her, because they didn't seem to have heard her.  "Twisty?" they asked, and recognizing she needed to be even louder, she ...

Ten Things of Thankful: Valentine's Day is in Spring Edition

Despite what the groundhog predicted, here in my neck of the woods we have been enjoying balmy weather.  I think the nation needs a west coast groundhog to provide the local forecast.  I've spent time in my backyard this week, pruning palms and roses, pulling weeds, and planting raspberries and lilacs.  For those of you still buried in snow, I offer a hopeful glimpse of weather to come:
