APRICOT-GLAZED BACON SPIRALS
Here's a real crowd-pleaser for an appetizer table or brunch buffet. A whole piece of crispy bacon is rolled into each spiral. It's so good with the apricot preserves, which make it a sweet-and-salty treat. -Kellie Mulleavy, Lambertville, Michigan

BACON-WRAPPED DRIED APRICOTS
Steps:
- Gently separate the two sides of each apricot and stuff with the almonds. Wrap each with a segment of the bacon. Arrange in a small nonstick skillet seam-side down. Cook on medium heat until the undersides are well-browned and crisp, 6 to 7 minutes.
- Turn the apricots over and continue to cook until browned on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes more. Add the maple syrup, vinegar and a few grinds of pepper and cook, shaking the skillet to coat, until the liquid has reduced and the apricots are glossy and browned all over, about 1 minute more. Transfer to a small plate and sprinkle with the chives. Serve warm or at room temperature.
APRICOT GLAZE
A light and refreshing glaze that adds delicious apricot flavor to quickbreads, poundcake and cupcakes. This makes any homemade treat tastes like it came from a French bakery. Use fresh squeezed orange juice and homemade preserves for an easy ooh, la, la touch of Paris! This is especially good with lemon poundcake.

APRICOT GLAZED SPIRAL HAM
I just made this for Easter and everyone seemed to enjoy it. It's from Canadian Living. You can do this with a non-spiral-cut ham: just score a diamond pattern into the trimmed ham. http://www.canadianliving.com/food/apricot_glazed_spiral_ham.php
