  1. A great, healthy little snack. I left off the splenda/cinnamon, and I took the advice of previous reviewers & diced my apple instead of just slicing. I used a Gala apple and peeled it also. I enjoyed this for a late Saturday breakfast - yummy!
     
  2. It is imperative to grate the apple, or the tortilla will break when rolling. It was ok, the kids ate it at a recent party we had. Will keep on hand for kid stuff.
     
  3. Definitely a keeper. What a great quick snack! Even the scoffers in my family loved it! Thanks!
     
  4. Another recipe to keep! I didn't have whole-wheat tortillas, so I just used the flour tortillas I had on hand. I also didn't have the sugar substitute, so I used regular sugar very sparingly. I did slice the apples, but next time, I think I will try grating them or finely chopping them for easier eating. The flour tortillas I had were getting just a little dry, so when I had all of the ingredients in place and rolled up, I placed it in the microwave for about 10 seconds just to warm it up a bit. Some juice tended to run out after I did warm them up, but the flavor was still fantastic. If the tortillas are a little dry next time, I may try heating the tortilla before putting the ingredients on top and rolling them up. All in all, it's a great recipe that we enjoyed very much and will definitely be making again! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
     
  5. A Perfect combination of flavors.The only thing I did different was to shred the apples in my salad shooter and mix all the ingredients together.This caused less falling chuncks with my little one whose table skills are limited.

I'm a graduate student studying agricultural economics, originally from Georgia. (Go dawgs!) I try to eat very healthy, most often low-carb. But, I do love sweets sometimes. I like to bake for others so much- so I do it all the time and have become known for just stopping by with casseroles, brownies etc..
