Snack Attack!

I'm always on the look out for healthy snacks for the whole family. I found this great snack idea on Pinterest (original blog link) and let me say, I was not immediately impressed upon reading it, but something compelled me to try it anyway. I'm SOOOO glad I did! The kids love it, I love it, and my hubby loves it!  Other virtues: (1) refined sugar free (2) loaded with fiber and vitamin C, (3) and best of all I can make a big batch and it lasts in the fridge for days without the apples browning! They are a great replacement for those expensive already cup up apples you get at the store, and they only take a tiny amount of time to make. We like using Jazz or Pink Lady apples, but really you could use any kind - Fuji would be great, especially for kiddos since they are a bit sweeter. Super simple and super tasty - I hope you try it!

INGREDIENTS:
4 large apples - sliced thin
1 large orange
1 lemon

DIRECTIONS:
Into a large container with a sealing lid, squeeze the orange & lemon. Add the sliced apples and place the lid on making sure it is tightly sealed. Gently shake to coat all the apple slices in the orange & lemon juice. Chill for at least 30 minutes & enjoy!
