An apple a day--well, we all know what they say about apples and staying healthy, don't we? But when you slice the apples, drench them in maple syrup, and add a few pecans, you create a taste treat that'll inspire anyone who tastes it to live healthy for a lifetime!

1. Arrange apple slices in an 8-by-8 inch glass microwaveable baking dish. Drizzle maple syrup over apples. Evenly sprinkle pecans over top. Cover and microwave on HIGH (100% power) for 3 to 4 minutes. Serve warm. Serves 4 (1/2 Cup).

MaryD's Notes: I found almost an identical recipe that said it could be baked at 350 for 20 minutes if you wanted to use your oven). She also used Gala Apples and syrup with NutraSweet.
