Snacks & Desserts

apples
The Good ‘Ol Apple

Whether you prefer tart or sweet, there’s an apple for you! We often forget that fresh and simple is usually the best choice.

The shopping list is broken down by meal for ease of use. We try to include recipes that use the same ingredients more than once so that you don’t end up with food waste. Because of this you’ll see that if an ingredient in the breakfast recipe is also in the dinner recipe it is only listed once. Let us know if you like this way of laying out the shopping list or if you have a better suggestion.
