Waistline-Friendly Stewed Apples image

I like to find healthy alternatives to some of my favorite foods. I love fried/stewed apples and I found a wonderful way to still enjoy this delicious food, while trimming down calories and fat. These apples are wonderful! Just serve over a hot bowl of oatmeal or your favorite hot cereal for a healthy, nutritious breakfast....
