Edition 12 -Canned Fruit and Edition 13 - Canned Pie Filling

Canned fruit can make a quick salad or refreshing snack. Pineapple could be used to top a ham, mango in a chutney, to make a smoothie, you name it. Fruit is low in calories and some of it is very high in nutrients such as vitamin C.

Pie filling isn't just for pie! You can use it to cover that mistake you made in frosting a cake, as an add on for ice cream, or to sweeten the deal on your cheesecake.
