No Bad Apples Okay, don't go baking an apple pie on me or anything but since it's harvest time, here's a good FAQ on picking the best apples. I did check out some of the recipes listed here. The Apple Stuffed chicken breast is okay as is although you could be extra carefull and sub oatmeal (dry) for the tablespoon of breadcrumbs. If you use the applesauce recipe, drop the cup of sugar of course. You could replace it with an equivalent amount of Splenda although I would think about cutting back on even that. If you use good apples and throw in some cinnamon, I think you'll find you don't need to add a lot of sugar to that which nature has already made sweet. The Apple Walnut salad would be great for a special occasion with a little modification. Reduce the amount of walnuts by 1/2. On the vinaigrette, omit the sugar, increase the balsamic vinegar to 2/3 cup, and use 1/3 c. olive oil instead of the 1 cup of vegetable oil. You'll really only need to lightly drizzle the salad- the flavor of this will go a long way with this modification. You may not even use it all. ~ Stella

Welcome to my kitchen. Sometimes I'll be serving up healthy food topics and sharing my plate of resources. Other times it's just going to be a cup of coffee and conversation about life, training, and my various opinions (and I seem to acquire more of those with each passing year). Bon Appetit.
