An apple a day ...

To store apples, refrigerate them in a plastic bag or in the crisper drawer. Check the stored apples often – one bad apple can spoil the whole bag! When you cut a raw apple, it may turn dark. To prevent this, dip the pieces in a fruit juice like lemon, orange, grapefruit, or pineapple before combining with other ingredients. Right now, apples are in pretty good supply. Whether you buy locally grown apples or apples from the store, eating apples can add variety, color, and nutrition to your meals!
