Recipe Preparation
Combine celery, carrots, and apples. Thoroughly blend remaining
ingredients and fold into celery mixture. If desired, fold in walnuts
or sprinkle over top as a gamish. Chill at least 30 minutes before
serving in lettuce-lined bowl. Delightly crunchy! Food Exchange per
serving: 1 FAT EXCHANGE + 1/4 FRUIT EXCHANGE (IF YOU USED THE BIGGEST
APPLE EVER). I would cut this recipe down to make this be 1 fat
exchange for me and use sugar substitute. Could be used as a side
dish for the vegetarian.
