Apples to Apples

There's an abundance of apples at my house, and thus I go to great lengths into trying to incorporate apples into every meal. So far... I've been (or meaning to start) indulging in the following:
  • apples with yogurt, cereal, cinnamon, flax seeds, walnuts, peanut butter, coconut, oatmeal for breakfast (anything you can find)
  • baking apples, put some sugar and cinnamon on it, stick it in the oven
  • apple crisp/crumble:
    • mix oatmeal, butter, sugar (brown and white), flour, cinnamon
    • slice or cut apples, and pour mixture on top
    • stick in a greased pan
    • eat with whipped cream, vanilla ice cream, or something yummy like that
  • I used to have a craving for the ACDC spinach, sunflower seed, lemon dressing salad with apples and cranberries. So mix all of this together, and there you go. Add cheese for some more substance and protein.
  • instead of pb and jelly, try pb and apple
  • melt butter in a saucepan, add sugar if you like things sweet, put cut up apples into the saucepan (season with cinnamon or curry)
  • vegetable curry (mix apples into your curry)
  • I'm sure that going without Gossip Girl for a week is almost impossible for you as well, so maybe some Blair Waldorf salad will help alleviate the wait? (Yes I've been dying to say this for a long time)
  • apple scones
  • apple pie
  • apple butter
  • apple jelly
  • apples with cheese is also great - eat on crackers (I know grapes and pears are more standard choice, but hey, whatever)

  1. These ideas all sounds great, but there are still 30 apples here waiting to be made into one of them (and eaten)!
