Dietitian’s Dish Tip(s):
> Skip the oversized caramel or red candy-coated apples! Instead, serve apple slices with a variety of dips and toppings – from kid-friendly candies to better-for-you toppings like this caramel dip, chopped nuts and folate-rich cereals. The apples provide fiber, pectin, quercetin and other health-protective nutrients.
