RECIPE BY: Izzy Knight

A very easy and delicious recipe from a popular spa retreat, Rancho la Puerta. It's low in calorie and fat, but packed with flavour. It's a great alternative lunch if you've been trying to squeeze in that new bikini from last summer.

    I usually scale this recipe to 1/4 and call it my light lunch. I can't belive how much more there seems to be to eat in a single apple when you garnish it like this! I've done all sorts of versions of this recipe: used buttermilk instead of youghurt, other fruit juices instead of apple juice, omitted the seeds, increased the amount of coconut... and they're all good! Thank you for sharing Izzy!!

    ATTENTION: All those on a low-cal and low-fat diet, this is one of THE BEST recipes here. Absolutely flavour packed, nutritious, good for health and AMAZINGLY great! I omitted the sunflower seeds, but besides that used everything else. I scaled it down to 1 serving(just for me) and I can't find words to tell you how much I appreciate Izzy for sharing this recipe. I would suggest everyone to try this. A real WINNER!

    This didn't do that much for me, at least when made with Granny Smith apples (which is what I had on hand). That particular type of apple may be too tart and too crisp.
