- Apple 1 small
Method

Wash the Apple.
Rinse the apple under cool running water to remove any dirt or residues. Use your hands to gently rub the surface.
Tip: Using a fruit brush can help clean the apple more thoroughly. -
Slice the Apple.
Place the apple on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, cut the apple into thin slices. Remove the core by cutting around it or using an apple corer if available.
Tip: Be careful with the knife and keep fingers away from the blade. If you are unsure, ask an adult for help. -
Prepare the String Cheese.
Unwrap the low-fat string cheese stick. If desired, you can pull the cheese apart into smaller strings for easier eating.
Tip: Pulling the cheese into strings makes it fun to eat and helps control portion sizes. -
Serve.
Arrange the apple slices on a plate alongside the string cheese. Enjoy immediately for the best taste and texture.
Tip: If you want to prevent the apple slices from browning, you can lightly brush them with lemon juice.
Pro tips
- Choose fresh, crisp apples like Fuji or Gala for the best flavor.
- To keep apple slices from browning, dip them briefly in cold water with a little lemon juice.
