I went apple picking this weekend and have a ton of apples. Ok, not a ton, but 13 lbs worth. Since I don't want to ruin my diet by making 10 apple pies, I've experimented with two healthy and savory apple recipes. This is the first one:
Cabbage Apple Slaw
1-16 oz package of tri-color ready slaw cabbage mix (or chop up a head of cabbage)
1 yellow onion, chopped
1 tart apple (I used a Winesap apple with the skin on, you can take the skin off if it doesn't appeal to you), chopped
1 english cucumber, chopped
3 tbsp. dijon nayonaise (it's a soy based low fat mayo alternative)
2 tbsp. spicy mustard of your choice
juice from 1 large lemon
salt and pepper to taste
Mix it all up, chill for about an hour, enjoy.
you can easily substitute regular mayo for the soy mayo.
