North Conway, NH Weekend

I spent the weekend in beautiful North Conway, New Hampshire.  My mom rented a house and invited the fam.  It was a lonnnnng drive but when we finally arrived around 10pm on Friday night, it was well worth it.  The house was so nice! We hung out for awhile and then headed to bed.  In the morning, we headed to Peaches for Breakfast.

And sat outside because it was beautiful out!

I ordered the California Omlette.  And it was fabulous.  Eggs, Avocado, Tomato, Bacon and Havarti Cheese.

I love this combination!

Next up, the group broke up and Dave and I went Apple Picking at Hatch Apples.

It was about a 20 min drive from where we were staying. And the apples were only .75cents a pound!!! We got about 10 pounds of apples for $7.50.  Can't beat that!

After apple picking, we headed to the top of Cathedral Ledge at Echo Lake. 

The views were gorgeous!

Once we got back to the house, we took a walk down the path in the back yard.  And look what we found!

My mom made a delicious dinner but the photos don't do it justice.  After dinner, Dave started a fire so we could keep warm and make end-of-the-summer S'mores.

After s'mores we watched Date Night.  I thought it was hysterical!  This morning my family headed out for a hike and I passed because my achilles was acting up and I wanted to rest it for my long run tomorrow.  Around 2:30, we made the long trek home. As soon as I walked in the door, I got cooking.

First up, I got to work on those apples we picked and made the worlds easiest Apple Crisp.

Macintosh Apple Crisp
Ingredients:

3 cups (3 apples) sliced McIntosh apples
2/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup oats
1/3 cup butter, softened
2 tsp pumpkin pie spice

Instructions
Heat Oven to 375° F. Arrange apples in a greased 8"square pan.  Mix remaining ingredients, sprinkle over apples.  Bake until topping is golden brown and apples are tender, about 30 minutes.  Serve warm.

But no, I didn't eat dessert for dinner.  For dinner, I made Buffalo Chicken Squares!  I love this recipe- simple and perfect for watching Sunday Football.

Buffalo Chicken Squares

Ingredients:

1 can (8oz) refrigerated crescent rolls

3/4 cup shredded poached chopped chicken, cooked

1/2 cup Buffalo Sauce

1/2 cup Ranch Dressing

4 oz cream cheese, softened

1/4 cup cheddar

1 stalk of celery, finely chopped

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 375.  Spray cookie sheet. Unroll dough and separate into 4 rectangles, and firmly press to seal.

In a small bowl, mix chicken, buffalo sauce, ranch dressing, cheddar cheese and celery.  Spread 1/4 of cream cheese over each rectangle to about 1/4 inch of the edge.  

Sprinkle evenly with the chicken mixture. 

 Roll up the edges to enclose package.

Cook at 375 for 10-15 minutes until crust is lightly browned.

This was so easy to make it was really tasty!  I'm definitely going to make these again (smaller versions) for future football parties. Hope everyone had great weekends!
