1. Heat oven to 425 degrees. Roll one refrigerated pie crust into a 9 inch glass pie plate.

2. Mix 6 cups of thinly sliced apples, preferably a firm variety like Granny Smith, 3/4 cup of sugar, 2 tablespoons of flour, a tablespoon of lemon juice, 3/4 teaspoon of cinnamon, 1/8 teaspoon of nutmeg, and 1/4 of a teaspoon of salt. Pour entire mixture into the pie shell.

How to buy organic produce – Organic foods

Looking for organic produce, but not sure you’ve got the real thing? Anna Lappe, organic food expert, tells you the simple ways to tell whether produce is organic or not.

First, let’s explain what organic produce is:
Produce that is grown organically has not been produced with sewage sludge, it hasn’t been irradiated, it doesn’t include genetically modified foods, or most man-made chemicals.

How can you tell whether a piece of produce is organic?
If you’re in a store that has an organic section, obviously head for it. But if there isn’t an organic section, you have to do a little bit of extra work.

* The first thing you should do is look for the USDA certified organic label. If they don’t have that, look for the PLU number on most fruits and vegetables. You’ll find this on a small label that’s been stuck to the fruit.

Organic Food Labeling: How To Tell If Packaged Food Is Organic

Confused by organic food labeling? Author and organic food expert Anna Lappe explains what the terminology means.

Organic Food Labeling: How To Tell If Packaged Food Is Organic

Sometimes it’s hard to distinguish organic food by its packaging. Fresh produce is easier…it either is or isn’t organically grown. But packaged foods are trickier. Here’s what you need to know about organic food labels:

* Look for the USDA certified organic seal. This means at least 95% of the ingredients are organic.

* If you see a label that says 70% organic, that means that 70% of the ingredients are organic.

* If the product has less than 70% organic ingredients, it can’t feature an organic label, so you have to read the ingredients on the package. Don’t be fooled by products that you think are organic because their names or packaging look like they are.
