I was contacted recently by the nice folks at Silk to see if I would be interested in sampling their new variety of soymilk. Of course I said yes, yes, yes, please, and thank you!
This particular Silk is called Heart Health and has been clinically shown to reduce bad cholesterol levels by up to 7% in just 4 weeks. Well, ya can't beat that, right?!

I decided to use my Silk in a yummy crisp.

I hope you all had a lovely weekend! My son and I had a little mom and son date today. We went to see Toy Story 2 in 3-D. I haven't seen this movie since my daughter was little. It sure was fun seeing Buzz and Woody again!

Your crisp looks delicious. I'm so excited to get back to baking since Fall is here :)
Nice crisp. Looks great. I'll be sure to also try the Silk Heart Health. I love soy and regular milk.
PERFECT Kim!! I am going to make something like this for Thanksgiving. Obviously not as good as yours but I will try. I know I owe you a blogging event; I am working on it I promise!!! Voting is open now too!
Oh that movie is so funny!
Love the crisp, looks delicious.

Love that movie and this crisp is just heavenly sounding!!
Mmmm....I made some crisps a few days ago, too. But mine is the mini version. hehe...
I love a good crisp too! Especially with vanilla ice cream! Your looks so good I can almost smell it!
delicious! what an irresistible dessert!
Your crisp looks amazing! With a scoop of that ice cream, it looks just perfect!

The crisp looks wonderful! Great idea to use both pears and apples.
I don't think there is a better dessert than a simple apple crisp. Yummy!
Apple crisp=fall, in my opinion. Your looks beautiful!
Love and apple - pear combo in your crisp. And Honeycrisps are the best!. I saw my first 3-D movie recently. Amazing!!!
The perfect fall dessert!! So delicious with apples and pears! How sweet to have a Mom and son date - I love Toy Story.
What an interesting recipe. I would never have thought to mix the fruit with the soy milk. I must give this a try.
This looks delicious, like perfect autumnal fayre. I presume dairy milk could be used instead?
oh goodness! that just looks wonderful!
What a beautiful crisp! I think that is the perfect Fall desert. Yum!
XOOX

Some of my favorite thing there, crisp, honeycrisp apples. Yum!
I love how you used the soy milk.
We drink Silk, and I use it often in cooking, the plain version... I would love this crisp!
I am sooo glad you posted this! Now I can make this and Ben can't whine! It's heart healthy! :)
I love the way you healthied up your beautiful crisp!
pure heaven, and what a great idea for your soy milk. both of my kids are lactose intolerant, so we have to buy soy milk for them. i've never tried silk before, i'll have to get some!
This looks like the perfect use for all the apples I seem to keep buying! By the way, the plate that the fruit is on is so pretty...I love it!
Oh yum! I've been hearing so much about these honeycrisp varities! Excited to try this out.
Oh, boy does that crisp ever look good! Love crisp!!
I'm going to have to look for this soy milk. If it can reduce my cholesterol, plus make other small changes, to reduce it even further, I'm in!! Thanks for a terrific product review that I can and will pursue.
I'm so excited to now have a recipe that incorporates soy milk! (it's always feeling left out! hehe)

Beyond delicious. That last shot has me wanting to grab 3 spoonfuls, HUGE spoonfuls.
I did this with Almond Milk. Silk was a very good idea, but Almond Milk has similar nutritional benefits and it's about $1 cheaper in the store.
Thanks for the recipe!
The crisp looks delicious and your pictures are gorgeous! I'm loving your new headline pics too! Perfect for the season. I've never tried Silk and my cholesterol is good, but for those who have cholesterol issues, what a wonderful product.
Thanks for a lovely apple crisp recipe!
I'm with you. Throw any kind of fruit in a crisp and I'll demolish it!
The crisp sounds amazing, I love that it has both apples and pears, yum!
Great movie, great crisp. Have a wonderful evening.
I am drooling. This looks fantastic!
Hi,Kim!
love your apple crisp, looks so yummy..so much better than the apple crumble I made, I will definitely try this! :)
Yummy. Thanks for sharing. Cheers !
What a great idea to add pears. I'm a huge fan of honey crisp apples. Can't wait to give this a try!
I could use some help in the cholesterol department. Must try this too!
This looks delicious! I've never made a crisp with any kind of milk. I love Silk. I've used it in waffles and pancakes before and different baked goods. And I can't start my day without Silk French Vanilla creamer in my coffee!
