Fool Yourself Apple Pie

Fool Yourself Apple Pie
1 medium sized apple, skin removed (medium size, approximately 3 apples per lb)
¾ cup of Cottage Cheese (2% tastes best)
2 to 3 packets of sweetener (Splenda, Stevia, Equal, etc.)
Ground Cinnamon (to taste)
Butter Buds (optional – to taste)
Handful of Traditional Oatmeal (optional, for texture)

1. Cut up small apple into small pieces (about ¼” pieces), cook in the microwave for about 2 minutes, until nice and soft.
2. Mix 2 to 3 packets of sweetener in the cooked apples.
3. Sprinkle a dash of cinnamon (or lots!)
4. Mix ½ or ¾ c. of cottage cheese
5. Optional: add Butter Buds and Oatmeal to taste
6. Optional: ½ scoop Vanilla Whey Protein (to make it “Apple Pie a La Mode!”)
ENJOY!!!

I swear this taste just as good as a piece of pie, but it’s a lot better for you!

You could probably add ½ scoop of vanilla whey protein to make it a “Food Yourself Apple Pie a La Mode”, which will increase your protein intake!
