Cheesy Apple English Muffin: Open an English muffin and place 2 apple slices on
each side. Cover the apples with 2 slices of reduced-fat cheddar cheese, and
toast in a toaster oven or under a broiler until the cheese is melted.
Roasted Apple Salad: Peel 2 apples, and slice them into wedges. Toss the apples with 2 tsp.
of olive oil and ¼ tsp. of thyme. Bake the apples for 25-30 minutes at 400°F, turning
once halfway through. Then, remove the apples, and let them cool. Toss 3 cups
of spinach and 6 cups of mixed baby greens together, and drizzle with ½ cup of
red wine vinaigrette dressing. Top with the roasted apples, 2/3 cup of shredded
Swiss cheese, and ¼ cup chopped walnuts. (Makes 6 servings)
Chunky French Applesauce: Cut 1 apple into bite-sized chunks. Place the apple
into a saucepan with a third cup of raisins, ¼ cup of chopped walnuts, ½ tsp.
ground cinnamon, a pinch of ground nutmeg, and ½ cup of water. Bring everything
to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer until apples are tender,
stirring occasionally. Serve warm or cold over the top of grilled pork chops.
(Makes 4 servings)
Amazing Apple Crisp: Peel, core, and slice 6 apples. Mix the apples in a bowl with ¾ cup
of sugar, 2 Tbsp. lemon juice, 1 Tbsp. flour, and 1 tsp. cinnamon, then spread the
mixture over a lightly greased 9-inch square pan. In another bowl, combine 1
cup of old-fashioned oats, ¾ cup brown sugar, ¾ cup melted butter, and ¼ tsp. baking
soda. Mix well. Sprinkle the crumble evenly over the apples in the pan. Bake
for 30 minutes at 375°F and serve warm, topped with vanilla ice cream. (Makes 8
servings)
