Autumn is coming and with its arrival, we have access to some delicious produce that we have not had locally for a year!  I have two apple trees right outside my kitchen window.  I can see them loaded with fresh, delicious, organic apples!   Here is a wonderfully healthy, scrumptious, and Gluten-Free Apple Salad that is sure to please your whole family.

Apples are one of the healthiest foods a person can eat. They are high in vitamin C and have high fiber content.  They are also low in calories, have only a trace of sodium, and no fat or cholesterol.  Make sure to eat the skin of the apple, it is loaded with polyphenols!
