                                           Cherry Heart Tarts.....................................

Recipe as follows:

Gluten free pasta.... cook according to directions ....cool

1 red pepper ......cored and chopped into small pieces.........

1 celery stalk........chopped ................

2 green onions..........chopped....I like to use the white and the green ..........

1 lrge carrot .........diced into small pieces..................

sun dried tomatoes drenched in olive oil.........chopped.........

Feta cheese...................chopped into small pieces.........

Add top ingredients to cooled pasta......



for dressing........
extra virgin olive oil......3 tablespoons
white balsamic vinegar....1 tablespoon
seasoned rice vinegar......1 teaspoon
a dash of Montreal steak spice
a dash of salt and pepper


Then pour dressing  on top and mix all together





Serve on  white dishes...






Cherry Heart Tarts............








These are super easy to make............

I purchase pre made pie crust...........

cut out with a round cookie cutter 12 circles........

open 1 jar of cooking cherries and add one spoonful to the centre........

Now carefully cut out heart shapes in the next twelve circles .............

place these tops on top of cherries......... seal the edges so that the cherries don't escape.

preheat oven to 325 then bake till golden..........15 mins...............

They are bite size so they are easy on the calories.......


                                                Enjoy!!
                                    Happy Valentines Day!!

  4. Linda! Both of these recipes look yummy! We've been eating only the whole wheat pasta recently and now are hooked. I have everything I need for those little pies right here in the house, so I think I know what I'll make for dessert tomorrow! Linda
