Apple Chip Nachos Recipe

How do you Power Your Lunchbox? It’s Back-to-School season which means we are gearing up for another year of delicious lunchboxes for my son. First Grade, where has the time gone? And one of the biggest challenges for my growing boy is providing him with a delicious and nutritious after school snack.

Inspired by the Produce for Kids Power Your Lunchbox Pledge this season, I’ve created this yummy Apple Chip Nachos Recipe for a unique and healthy twist on a classic favorite snack. Ready to dig in? So are we 🙂

Produce for kids power your lunchbox

I love the Produce for Kids Power Your Lunchbox Pledge (PYLP) because it makes me consciously think about the food choices I’m making for my son’s lunch and beyond everyday. I can choose to give him the quick and easy meals, OR I can provide him with the delicious nutrition his brain and body need to make First Grade amazing.

Plus, it’s a wonderful opportunity to give back at the same time. Crispy Green is one of the delicious sponsors this PYLP season, and these little packets of freeze dried apples are DIVINE for snacking! The perfect crisp of a chip and the simple sweetness of an apple, I knew I just had to use these in a recipe. And so, the Apple Chip Nachos Snack was born.

    I wonder if you could substitute almond butter for peanut butter? Sounds delicious nonetheless.

    Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful recipe on Apple Crisp Nachos Recipe/Power Your Lunch Box Pledge! These apple nachos sound really, really good! They are so good for you too! I make sure that I pack good things for the kids and their lunches! One of the bloggers had an ongoing series for Good Lunches instead of a sandwich! It was terrific and I got an awful lot of great recipes! Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful recipe with all of us! I really do appreciate it! Thanks again! Michele 🙂
