Above is an apple corer. If you do not have one, you need one. You can get them at Safeway, or any kitchen store. If I was handed one more wet, slopped-on, slurped-on apple core “Here Mom, I am done with this” I think my head would have exploded. My husband brought this home a couple of months ago and it is my new favorite kitchen accessory!
So the apple corer, led to the apple sandwich, the new “Favorite” snack at our house!
1) Core and slice apples, not too thin
2) Add peanut butter, or whatever nut butter your kids like
3) Add toppings (dried cherries, cranberries, jelly, chocolate chips, granola, sunflower seeds, whatever they will eat) I added some chocolate syrup on this one. Listen…health food? No. But you have to keep it real, and fun. A serving of chocolate syrup is 1 tbl, there is not even 1/2 a tablespoon used here…I can live with that, and it makes them feel like they got an extra somethin’ somethin’!
4) Add the top and serve
Another fun, healthy snack we all can live with!
Now that, is Good Stuff!
