Is apple good for meal planning?

Apples are a low-calorie, high-fibre fruit that fills you up for the calories. The fibre is mostly in the skin, so leave it on unless a recipe says otherwise.

Calorie content varies between varieties and sizes. Eating one or two a day is easy to plan around without weighing each one.

How to use apple in a meal plan

  • Afternoon snack with a small handful of almonds
  • Sliced into oats or yoghurt for breakfast
  • Pair with cheese for a quick savoury snack
  • Diced into a winter salad with chicken and leaves
