 Ingredients:

  • 1 apple
  • 2 bananas
  • 1/2 cup lemon juice
  • 3 large carrots (about 3 cups shredded)
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/3 cup seedless raisins
  • 1/2 cup lowfat salad dressing

Directions: Remember to Wash Your Hands!

1. Chop apple and slice bananas and put in a mixing bowl. Add lemon juice to keep the fruit from turning brown.
2. Grate carrots into another mixing bowl and add sugar and raisins.
3. Remove apples and bananas from juice and mix with carrots.
4. Add salad dressing, blend and chill until serving time.


Helpful Hints:

Recipes that use sliced or chopped apples, bananas or pears often include lemon juice or orange juice. The vitamin C in the juice keeps the fruit from turning brown once it is cut. Remember to try this 'trick' if you want keep to keep fruit looking fresh and tasty.

Safety Tip:

Remember to use a cutting board when chopping, cutting or slicing. It makes the job safer and protects fingers, table, kitchen or counter tops! Whether you choose plastic, acrylic or wood, keep cutting boards clean. After each use, wash cutting boards in hot soapy water, rinse and dry well.
