Eating real food gets children and teenagers on the road to a lifetime of healthy eating habits and a great start on good health. Help them enjoy apples without all the added sugars. Traditional apple desserts are often loaded with excess sugars and sweeteners. Many apples are quite sweet by themselves.

In this apple cookbook there are recipes using no sugar or low sugar in a wide variety of food categories. If more sweetening is needed, other alternatives to the traditional high-sugar, white flour apple recipes are given. There are no artificial sweeteners used and a very limited amount of convenience foods is used.

Healthy food practices are the basis for the recipes. The author gives the top 10 healthy tips she considers the most important food practices for healthy living. From these she focuses on what she calls THE BIG FOUR:



Avoid refined sugar
Avoid white flour
Avoid GMO products
Use healthy cooking oil

With these healthy guidelines in mind, the author features a wide variety of ways to prepare apples. There are recipes for apple breads and cereals, salads, sandwiches, main dishes, side dishes, cakes, pies, cookies, desserts, snacks, and drinks. There are classics such as Apple Crisp, Apple Pancakes, and Apple Muffins, and the curiously named Appaloosa Alert. Kids will make and snack on apple chips, munch on apple leather, sample desserts, and learn how to make applesauce the easy way. There are over 70 wholesome and tasty recipes from which to choose.

Through-out the book there are short snips of interesting apple facts and folklore. Kids will meet Johnny Appleseed and Isaac Newton and learn how apples have affected the history of America.

Included is an apple guide to the varieties of apples used for different purposes. Different varieties are better when they are used for different purposes, such as eating-in-hand, for salads, for cooking in applesauce, and for baking in pies, tarts, crisps, and other desserts.

Safety precautions for kids working in the kitchen are given.Young cooks will appreciate the easy-to-follow directions while older cooks will enjoy creating apple dishes perfect for any occasion.

Enjoy apples in their pure, healthy form by following these healthy guidelines for kids and their families. The earlier naturally sweetened foods are introduced to children, the more likely they will accept them. Let them develop an appreciation of more healthful foods.

Get kids involved in knowing more about the food they are eating. These low sugar, lower calorie, kid-pleasing apple dishes will work for kids of all ages.
