hot fruite compote for 200
Donna
11/21/11 		I'm wanting to make a hot fruit compote and have a few recipes. One for the crock-pot seems easy and accommodating. Do you have a recipe for fruit compote for 200 people I'm serving at church for Thanksgiving? I'm also trying to keep the expense down for the church.

Thank you
