Cheerios® Crunchy Apple Salads

Cheerios® Crunchy Apple Salads
Recipe Tip
Slimming Salads
Eat foods like lettuce and celery, which contain a high percentage of water. More water means fewer calories for the same weight of food. Good news for your waistline.
Substitution
You can use other fresh fruits in this crunchy salad—just stir them in with the mayo. Pear or carrot slices are colorful, flavorful substitutions.

Cheerios Crunchy Apple Salad
This was delicious. I also used fat free greek yogurt and multigrain cheerios. I will definitely make this again.

Crunchy Apple Salad
This was actually a pretty good recipe, but I think that it would be better if fat-free plain yogurt was used instead of the mayo mix. Otherwise it is great.
