MIXED NUT PIE
This is like pecan pie but lots better. Have never taken it anywhere that I have not been asked for the recipe. In place of the mixed nuts you can use any combination of pecans, walnuts or cashews also.

FRESH FIG PIE
Figs must be in season in California right now because I see them all over. I had a mini fig tart last week from a local bakery and it was delicious. It did not have any creme. Just a pastry shell, very small figs, quartered with a sugary glazing on top. Simple and delicious. I'm trying to find a recipe that duplicates it. I found this recipe on iFood.tv and want to save it here because this is where I keep my recipes.
