    I don’t have a favorite bowl for cherries or really a favorite bowl period, but those bowls are very pretty.

      Oh my, as I hit post, I realized dish to use cherries in meant recipe to add them to and not container. I don’t know why I thought otherwise. I feel so silly.

    This is a desperate entry. Red. I need red. My kitchen accent color is red. This give away was made for ME.

    Cherry Recipe?
    Um, only cherry pie comes to mind. No, wait – I put cherries on cheesecake. 🙂

    Oh and wait – I love making the beautiful, festive grown up drink:
    Cherry 7-UP (hey that’s “Cherry”!)
    cranberry juice
    Raspberry liquor (we like Chambord)
    drop in a cherry or two in the glass to make it pretty

    I have smoothie that I make in the summer that is cherry- banana- vanilla. I use vanilla greek yogurt, ice, a half cup milk, one frozen banana, and a whole bunch (1-2 handfuls) of pitted cherries…yum. I wish it were a bit warmer right now for this!

    Funny enough the only cherry recipe I have that stands out is a cherry cheesecake that my mom used to make when I was a kid. It was my favorite and I always asked for it as my birthday treat. Funny enough now as an adult I don’t really love cheesecake, and it was made with canned cherry pie filling, not so yummy as an adult either! I should try to recreate the recipe and use ricotta or marscapone and real cherries!

    I have never cooked with cherries, I’m embarrassed to say. It always seems so complicated–sour cherries are almost impossible to find frozen, yet everything I read says those are the only cherries worth cooking with. What’s a girl to do?

  20. Michelle Smiles says

    February 8, 2011 at 7:22 PM

    I only discovered that I like cherries in the past 2 or 3 years (I know, right!). I thought I didn’t like them because I don’t like those ones that go in drinks. But then I tried Rainier cherries and *drool*. Then I moved on to Bing – also happiness. So now I look forward to cherries – except for pitting them for my kids…it slows down my cherry eating. They need to learn to do it themselves 😉

    • Michelle Smiles says

      February 8, 2011 at 7:23 PM

      All of that to say, I have never cooked with them because I didn’t think I liked them. Heh.

    There was a cherry “coffee cake” thing that I remember my mom making when I was a kid. She, of course, made it for a church function and I got maybe 2 square inches of it but it was sooooo yummy. Then several years ago, I was visiting my sister-in-law and she was making something to take to her MOPS group. Turns out, it was pretty much the exact same “coffee cake” I remembered my mom making. I asked her for recipe, made it once myself and then never made it again. Boo on me!

    I made a cherry compote last summer from fresh cherries. We spooned it over homemade vanilla ice cream, though I admit, I ate a fair bit of it straight from the pan!

    YES! Its called cherry cream crumble pie oh my. My honey loves it because its not super sweet like fruit pies can be sometimes, and it doesnt have any artificial dyes, though I have no problem with that and will inhale anything…im done now.

  31. Allison @ Alli 'n Son says

    February 8, 2011 at 9:08 PM

    I’m not a huge fan of cherries, but my favorite recipe would be cheesecake topped with cherries. You can’t go wrong with cheesecake.

  32. Katie says

    February 8, 2011 at 9:13 PM

    Yum! Love this!

    My recipe is called cherry delight and it is a long standing family favorite and is required at Christmas and Easter and everyone’s birthdays.

    Graham Cracker Crust, topped with a yummy mixture of cream cheese/powdered sugar/ and dream whip, topped by cherry pie filling. Easy and simple and everybody always asks for it.

    Cherry chocolate cake…what could be better than cherries and chocolate? Well…maybe cherries on top of cheesecake….or just plain ole cherries. Mmm!!!

    Well just yesterday I made some homemade granola bars. And for the fun extra ingredients I chopped up the rest of the Bliss dark chocolate and some dried cherries. So dark chocolate, dried cherry granola bars. Needless to say they are almost gone.

    Ummm…I don’t actually like cherries. I do love Cherry Coke – does that count? But I LOVE red. My dining room is red, and my kitchen is yellow with red accents. Red is my color. Therefore, I NEED (ha!) these goodies!!! 😉

  52. Amy Halleran @BeyondCreatives says

    February 9, 2011 at 9:15 AM

    My recipe is a throw together thing like most of my cooking, since following directions is not my strong suit. I needed something to jazzy up the grilled salmon we had the other night. It’s my 5 yo sons favorite and he will eat a pound of it if you let him. So we eat it a lot. Ok, so here goes… Man up the grille, nice & hot. Prepare the sauce: 8oz Cherry preserves (no sugar added), 4oz chili sauce, 2oz apple butter. Stir. The cherries add the tart, the chili sauce adds the kick, and the apple butter adds a clovey richness that no one expects. Slather skin-side of salmon 1.5 lb slab with olive oil, throw it on the grill (med heat), & heavily coat the top with the oh-so-tasty cherry goodness & close the grill. Leave it. Walk away from the grill. I promise the salmon with not run away from the flames. Check in 10 mins. Coat with more cherry goodness, turn off the flames, close the lid & walk away again. The salmon will finish cooking in the indirect heat. Remove from grill when it’s fleshy side is flaky. Also, the skin will be crispy & peels off easily.

    I always have left over sauce. I use it on chicken or fish or in stir-fry. Even to dip chicken tenders in. Keeps well in the frig for a month or so. Give it a try!

  53. Shari says

    February 9, 2011 at 9:40 AM

    We love my mom’s Pretzel Torte! It has a crust of crushed pretzels, sugar, and melted butter, with a filling and topping of sugar, cream cheese, whipped topping (and something else I’m forgetting), and a layer of cherry pie filling in there. It is SO GOOD!

  54. Lissa says

    February 9, 2011 at 10:36 AM

    Honestly I don’t think I have any recipes that I make with cherries in them 🙁 I love cherry salad dressings though (I have one that I should try making). I am inspired to possibly create a recipe for this contest from a childhood favorite that we bought at the store – not saying what it is so that the inspiration is not stolen 🙂

  55. Robyn G says

    February 9, 2011 at 12:18 PM

    My favorite cherry recipe isn’t anything super special – it’s a creamy pie in a graham cracker crust with cherry filling on top. I don’t even know what it’s called -I just know that my grandmother has made it for Christmas every year of my life, so it automatically reminds me of her. Love = the best treat. 🙂

The cherries give it a pretty color!

    Like some of the others, I prefer fresh cherries and could eat a bucket full of them! However, I do have a favorite “old” recipe that uses a bottle of cherries (juice and all) with vanilla pudding and yummy fresh and/or fruits to make a delicious, easy fruit salad. I have a black & white kitchen with red (my very favorite color) accents, so I really do NEED the red goodies!! Have a happy week!

    I don’t care for cherries too much, but LOVE them over a cheesecake! That’s about the only time I eat them, other than in fruit cocktail!

    It’s not a tough recipe by any means, but I add dried cherries to my oatmeal in the mornings for a sweet kick – LOVE IT. Also, love that little photo montage of the time in Michigan and how I wish we could go back!

    You know, besides cherry pie I’ve never cooked anything with cherries before. I do love them and I think something with cherries and quinoa might be yummy to try. I’ll have to look for some recipes.

    I’m not a big fan of cherries once they are cooked. I prefer them dried or right off the stem. So, my favorite recipes with them are dried and put in a cookie or trail mix and right off the stem and into a salad or on top of ice cream. 🙂

It’s a Hungarian recipes using sour cherries. Growing up, we had a sour cherry tree in our back yard. Aaaand, a lot of stomach aches from, you know, eating too many 😉 Thanks for sharing!!!!

    I love cherries! I add them to home made yogurt with just a tiny bit of sugar by soaking pitted cherries in a tablespoon of sugar. About a cup of cherries with a pint of yogurt and yum!
