Low Fat Cooking Low Fat Cooking Low Fat Living Easy Recipes Seasonal Recipes From Fiona Haynes, your Guide to Low Fat Cooking I had so much fun perusing the local farmers market this weekend. While my daughters wandered off to look at handcrafted earrings and lavender-infused soaps, I walked around the produce stalls comparing the bunches of asparagus, the heads of lettuce, the piles of dark cherries, and the mounds of fuzzy peaches. I walked around many times before homing in on my chosen fruits and vegetables. My favorite purchase this week was my big bag of Chelan cherries. After we all sampled a large number of them, I finally used my cherry stash to make a yummy cherry pie filling. Easy Cherry Pie Filling As with many seasonal fruits, the cherry season is all-too short-lived. Living in the Pacific Northwest, I have easy access to Rainier, Chelan and Bing cherries, so I know I am spoiled. Here's a great way to extend the cherry season: by making quantities of cherry-pie filling that can also serve as a warm compote or sauce.

So for those times when I would like a sweet treat to accompany my home-brewed coffee, here's a lighter coffee cake filled with plump blueberries.
