Krazy Kitchen Mom Tips

• To keep apple slices from browning, pour 1/4 cup of water into a shallow dish and add 1-2 tablespoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice. Submerge the apple slices in the lemon water for 2-3 minutes.
• Regular or honey goat cheese can be substituted for berry goat cheese.
• To keep fresh berries fresh, do not wash them until you are ready to use them.
• Add your favorite ingredients to make a variation of the salad.
  • Add hardboiled egg slices and bacon bits for a more savory flavor.
  • Add diced pears.
  • Substitute pecans for walnuts.
