I've never tried it, but I think I will this weekend! It's good for you. I found it on LifeLine Screening. They travel around the US doing inexpensive body scans. That's how we found out about my husbands AAA. If you are interested in a Life Screen near you call 1-800-909-1041. Here's to your health!

It sounds a little like some pizza 'desserts' I've tried. I'm not sure if they had cheese on them or not. If you can leave out the cornstarch (allergic), save me a piece when you make it. lol It sounds good.
Thanks for the LifeLine info.

I haven't had anything like this but it sounds so good. I'm thinking I could use a can or two of "no sugar added" apple pie filling on a pre-made pizza crust, add the pecans and cheese and make it so easy! THANKS for giving me the idea!

Something else that goes really nicely with apples is peanut butter, unfortunately I have developed an allergy to peanuts, but once I dropped an apple into the peanut butter cookies dough - hmmmmmmmmm good ! I love peanut butter cookies SOOOO much, :-(
Your recipe sounds good.

That does sound good! It's a bit complicated, but maybe I could do it! lol I'm not a good cook. I know the terms and how to's, but the end results aren't always good.

YUCK!!! I think I'll stick with a pizza with a little bit of sauce, lots of pepperoni, sausage, bell peppers, onions, olives, cheese, artichoke hearts, shrimp, jalapenos by the ton and extra anchovies. Makes me hungry right now and I haven't had breakfast yet!

Will depend on on the context really. Which is better as a snack - fruits personally. It's tastier and gives you that little bit of sweetness. Which can be better as a snack if you are trying hard to slice back on sugar and lose weight vegetables

I'll be there! Wally, this would be a good dessert after your more traditional (I wince when I say that) pizza.
