Get the latest Purple recipes from Group Recipes. http://www.grouprecipes.com/tag/purple A perfect after Sunday meal dessert. One of my favorites! Time consuming, but worth it.... http://www.grouprecipes.com/106792/german-plum-cake-zwetschgenkuchen.html A purple cake filled with grapes topped with a grape frosting. http://www.grouprecipes.com/99148/grape-a-licious-cake-w-frosting.html It's mulberry season here in the midwest and so I sent the kids out with pails and baskets and ladder to collect the bounty from our trees. For those unfamiliar with mulberries, they are a very sweet, deep purple berry that looks a lot like a blackberry but more slender with finer seeds. Trees can grow taller than a house. White Mulberries also can be found. The birds love them so you need to hurry and pick them once they ripen, so as to beat the birds to them. This recipe comes from the "Women's Day Encyclopedia of Cookery, 1966". http://www.grouprecipes.com/95231/mulberry-jelly.html This is a very finicky pasta, made with 4 different flours and beet juice, but the flavour and colour contrast with the herbed ricotta and pumpkin filling is so divine it's worth the effort! I would portion about 8-10 squares per person as a side dish, if you can stop yourself at that! The resting time is important with the dough too (and it will keep in the fridge for 3-4 days well wrapped), and the filling can be made ahead and frozen also. Makes 100 Ravioli, 10 servings total. http://www.grouprecipes.com/84061/pumpkin---filled-purple-pasta.html THIS.IS.AMAZING. The beet flavour is subtle, but its worth is for the colour. And you really do need the olive oil to garnish, even if you're like me and try to cut out ALL fats. Really worth making your own pasta for this. http://www.grouprecipes.com/80881/amazing-purple-beet-pasta-with-ricotta.html Kids of all ages will love these fun and fruity Frankenstein faces made from rectangles of jiggly green gelatin resting on bright purple kale. Bean sprout hair, jelly bean eyes and nose, mini marshmallow bolts and a sour cream smile give this memorable monster some playful personality. http://www.grouprecipes.com/76321/frankenstein-salads.html This was shared by a dear friend, so simple and perfect on any simple cake. The color alone is gorgeous! Enjoy! :) http://www.grouprecipes.com/65233/simple-concord-grape-frosting.html Simple, satisfying lunch made super easy, since all the stuff came out of my garden (except the hummus, which was storebought - Wendy and Barb's Skinny Dips is what I used). If you don't have purple beans (see the photo), which are exactly the same as green beans but purple (duh), just swap colours! Yellow would work too, and the purple ones actually turn green as they cook. http://www.grouprecipes.com/64122/purple-bean-and-tomato-salad.html I started throwing this together as an easy dish to take to parties and now its a favorite and its always requested at parties! Its colorful and tastes great!!!! http://www.grouprecipes.com/59871/easy-pasta-salad.html Ube is a purple yam found in Hawaii, the Phillipines etc. It has brown skin and purple flesh. When cooked it is so sweet it needs no sugar. The yam is also used to make cakes, desserts, jams puddings etc. Found at some ethnic grocery stores. It's lilac to purple color and sweetness is outstanding. http://www.grouprecipes.com/50006/ube--purple-mashed-yams.html
