A few months ago, one of our grocery store started
carrying mini red apples – they are delicious and perfect single serving size!
Red Apple Facts:
Red apple trees bear fruit at age for or five, and can
live to be 200 years old

Benefits:
Pectin is a beneficial component of red apples; it reduces the absorption of cholesterol and fights heart
disease.
Apples have a high nutritional value to keep you healthy.
The peel alone contains antioxidants that help reduce damaged cells and fight
some diseases. Apples are also fat, sodium, and cholesterol
free!

Did you know that there are 7,500 varieties of apples
grown throughout the world? They can come in a variety of shapes, flavors, and
colors including all shades of red, green, and yellow.
I love all variety apples and try to eat at least three a
week. This delicious fruit can be eaten
raw, cooked, baked, or juiced. Apples are one of the few fruits that you can
find fresh any time of the year.
