Fall is in the air. It’s time to say good-bye to summer and get back into the fall routine. Some of the favorite fall meals that my family enjoyed were called Impossible Pie. Basically, a one-pan meal that was convenient to fix with our hectic after school activity schedule. The recipes call for Bisquick, and were probably created in the Bisquick kitchens, but I have used Jiffy Mix as well. -Ella
