Welcome to Foodie Friday!
This week, I made two easy tarts.
Apricot-blueberry with lemon curd...
and strawberry-apricot with lemon curd
As always in Gollum's kitchen, the recipes are a snap.
What You Need:Pepperidge Farm puff pastry sheets, thawed
1 jar lemon curd
canned apricots (reserve liquid)
blueberries
1 jar strawberry ice cream topping
For the apricot-lemon curd tart, I thinned the lemon curd with apricot juice and spread it onto the pastry. After arranging the apricots (I added the blueberries *after* cooking), I popped the pan into a preheated 400 degree oven and cooked 20 minutes.
For the apricot-strawberry tart, I mixed lemon curd with the strawberry topping.
Same proceedure, minus the berries.
Simple.
These tarts will be "wiggly" when you pull them from the oven. After cooling, they will collect themselves and solidify.
Enjoy!

Oh My! I just gained 20 lbs. just looking at your photos! I love, love lemon curd, but know not to eat it at least 2 mos. before having blood work done. :-D
Have a great weekend.
Fruit as dessert seems to be the theme! Thanks for hosting.
Forgot to ask - Is the roster back at the barn?? :-D
What a fun blog you have. I'm joining into Foodie Friday for the first time.
Oh divine! Strawberries and lemon together? It doesn't get much better.
...and so so true about using Pepperidge Farm brand. It makes a big difference!
Wow, those look amazing. I LOVE your pictures! Thanks!

I have never made a tart for some reason! I think they seem hard but you make it look so easy!!
I would love to enter the kitchen aide mixer giveaway but am having trouble figuring out which post to leave my comment on. The sidebar picture doesn't pop up a post -

Oh my...I just love fruit tarts...especially cherry ones. I can eat cooked cherries...just not raw ;) I know I'm weird with the food allergies...I could never do the raw diet because I'm allergic to a lot of fruits and veggies when they are raw. Salad bars and I do not do well...lol Thanks for hosting once again and have a wonderful weekend Michael Lee!

These look so delicious! And there's something about baking a "tart" vs "pie." Pies just seem to carry with them a lot of guilt. Tarts? Not so much. :-) Just found your blog. It's lovely.

Mmmm, lemon flavored desserts are my favorite. They just seem sunnier. Thanks for sharing! I posted a Shrimp Artichoke Soup that is oh-so-simple!
Those tarts look spectacular -- very professional, and so easy, too! I'm having company this weekend and someone's bringing apple pie, but I think I'll make one of these as well -- so pretty on the table!
I hope you don't mind -- my Foodie Friday is a request for a good foolproof grape jam recipe!

yum those tarts looks amazing and so easy...thanks for the recipe.
Good and easy... just the way a dessert should be but rarely is. The colors are so clear and beautiful!
Stunningly beautiful desserts, Michael! I linked up some simple coffee ice cream. It's enjoyed by coffee lovers and non-coffee lovers alike. :-)

Your tarts look fabulous, your photography is always so stunning too. thanks for hosting!
First time here and am adding you to my favs! Love your tarts. I added my dish to your event, but it doesnt show the name of the dish with my name. :-(
Yummy -- you had me at lemon curd!
Once again, Micheal, yum!! Thanks for sharing all of your delicious ideas and photos!!
Oh my these are some scrumptious flavor combos!
Yum, these do look tasty! My post this week is homemade tomato sauce. It turned out great! Just enjoyed some over the weekend with friends.
To your success,

Your beautiful photos explain why I love to buy and collect cook books.....TO LOOK AT! I'm not much of a cook, but I do have other talents that make up for it, I guess! :D
