Fresh Apples are everywhere!  Organic ones are easy to find.  You may be in the enviable position of having an apple orchard near you so you can take you family to pick your own.  Or, at least go to local market. While in season, stock up.  My two young apple trees were not very productive this year.  I'll have to give them an organic fertilizer boost to improve their harvest next year. 

I love apples.  Every afternoon I bite into a crisp apple to satisfy my desire for sweet and give myself an energy upper. And, its natural fluoride helps keep my teeth clean and healthy!

Apples are delicious!  Serve them raw for mouth watering fresh bites, dehydrate or freeze them with a little lemon juice for winter use, make applesauce, pies, tarts and crisps, use them as toppings on pancakes or waffles, put chunks or shavings into salads, fill or coat acorn or other squashes with an apple mix, and cook them with meats.  Healthier Recipe Mom, Shonda, created this Apple & Veggie Stix Stuffed Chicken scrumptious meal. The Kid Kritics were amazing that their chicken was so moist and had a touch of sweet. They loved, loved, loved it!  Your family will too. Try it!

… for the health of families,
