Expert Tips

One package (6 ounces) diced dried fruit and raisins (about 1 1/4 cups) can be used instead of the dried cherries and peaches.

Stir in 1/2 teaspoon curry powder instead of the nutmeg for a taste of India.

Dried fruits are an excellent source of vitamins and minerals, plus they are rich in fiber. Both apricots and peaches provide a day's worth of vitamin A plus plenty of potassium.
