DESSERT ANYONE?

We like pie. It's the perfect dessert. BUT I’m diabetic and can’t eat much of it during a sitting. So making a whole pie doesn't make any sense. However we’ve discovered a quick and easy way to get a small dose of that sweetness. One of our hometown fast food places sells homemade pie by the slice. At least 12 different kinds. So we opt for a small slice from there to satisfy our cravings. In February they feature CHERRY pie. A president inspired thing. And in March they highlight their chocolate flavors. I like the VERY BERRY pie that they specialize in baking. It’s my favorite.  My husband usually gets the STRAWBERRY-RHUBARB. But he also has a fondness for the APPLE BROWN BETTY. Yet.. he does something I never heard of with the apple pie. When we get home... before he eats it… he melts a piece of cheddar cheese on top. He says the cheese offsets the sweetness and gives the dessert a savory flavor. I have to admit it is pretty good... IF you can get past a strong desire for a scoop of vanilla ice cream, instead. Do any of you do this? Melt cheese on your apple pie. I've been told in some circles it’s a time honored tradition.
