Just a Handful of Sweet Cherries

My favorite Cool Cherry Pie recipe is packed full of vitamin A, vitamin C, and antioxidants. I thought I would share it with you.

I just finished a handful of some of the sweetest cherries I have ever eaten. Although the season for cherries is winding down you can still find the juicy, heart shaped fruit at the local store. They are packed full of vitamin A, vitamin C, and antioxidants. I thought I would share a favorite recipe.
