Sweet, Simple Solutions

Busy mornings, afternoons and evenings are the norm for many families with days full of work, school and extracurricular activities. Finding time to share a fresh meal is often a priority that may remain difficult to achieve. These apple-based dishes can be the perfect solution to making easy, in-season meals.

Both recipes work best with apple varieties known for being especially crisp, such as Envy apples. Other varieties that are grown in North Carolina and in season also work well, including Honeycrisp, Gala and Jonagold.
