June 22, 2013

Add a little red, white and blue to your upcoming Fourth of July meal with this Patriotic Pie. The Secret Life of a Chef's Wife created this pie, which is a combination of banana cream pie topped with delicious berries. A tip for budding bakers -- make the pie the night before to give it enough time to set.
