FRIED PIES

Sometimes I get so hungry for things I used to cook when the kids were little.  These fried pies were so easy.........was an immediate snack or dessert.  I made Cherry for Bob and I today and I think I will probably eat several more before bedtime.........they were sooooo good.

When the kids were little I bought those canned blueberries, cherries or apples........today........I know, its sort of against the "rules".........So I took frozen sweet cherries, put in a pan with a handful of sugar, a tiny shot of almond flavoring, brought to a slow boil.  In a tiny dish I mixed a Tblsp of cornstarch with a little water and added to the cherries to thicken. Then set aside.

In the microwave I softened 4 flour tortillas.  Then placed a couple Tblps of cherry mixture at one end of softened tortilla and rolled up.........tucking in the ends like you would make an envelope. When you have  them all rolled up.........Heat your grease like you were going to fry taco shells and carefully place one of the rolls in with the flap on bottom........brown, carefully turn........put on papertowells to drain..........sprinkle all with powdered sugar and thats it!  You could be really inventive with all sorts of fun fillings..........enjoy!
