We love peach smoothies, too. :heart:

Also, peaches are very easy to freeze - nothing's better than pulling out some yummy peaches in the middle of winter!

I'd make a peach crisp like apple crisp only with peaches.

Copbblers & crisps are very easy to make. Go to allrecipes.com & search for them. I love that site -- the reviews are really helpful in picking out a recipe winner.

mmm peach cobbler... <drool>

thanks soo much for mentioning peaches! LOL.. I went out to the farm market and bought a bunch myself. I took the ripe ones and made a peach crisp (same as an apple crisp) but I also threw in some blueberries!

it was sooo yummy, both kids ate it and dh couldnt believe i made it lol.. I dont like to cook so this was shocking to him lol..

I used to work at a tea room owned by a little old lady who baked all the pies every morning from scratch. She did a peach blueberry pie that remains the best pie ever! (Though her pecan pie was pretty awesome, too)

well i cheated and bought a bag of the premixed stuff, it consisted of oatmeal, brown sugar, wheat flour, and walnuts.
all i had to do was add 1/2 cup of melted margerine or butter and mix it all together.

It said to use about 4 cups of sliced peaches to a baking pan, then pour the crisp mix over it and bake for one hour at 350'

I just added a container of blueberries
