Method
-
Prepare the apple.
Wash the apple thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt or residues. Using a sharp knife, cut the apple into thin, even slices about 1/4-inch thick. Remove the core if desired.
Tip: To prevent the apple slices from browning, you can lightly brush them with lemon juice. -
Slice the cheese.
Take 2 ounces of low-fat cheese and slice it into thin pieces similar in size to the apple slices. This will make it easier to combine and eat together.
Tip: If the cheese is cold and hard, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften for easier slicing. -
Arrange and serve.
On a plate, arrange the apple slices and cheese slices side by side or alternating. This makes it visually appealing and easy to pick up bite-sized portions.
Tip: You can sprinkle a little cinnamon on the apple slices for extra flavor if you like.
Pro tips
- Use a sharp knife for clean apple slices to avoid bruising the fruit.
- Pair this snack with a handful of nuts for added crunch and nutrition.
