Cooked Apples

I must confess that the stuffed pork chops idea and this idea both came from another recipe website that I discovered (www.menus4moms.com); this website posts a whole menu plan a week at a time. I decided to give it a try this week, and it's not half bad. Although, next week I'm planning to try ideas from our site! :)

O.k., I liked these cooked apples b/c they were great plain by themselves, but they'd also be great with whipped cream, or ice cream, or in a pie! I ate them plain trying to cut calories! :{

6 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
2 Tbs sugar
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla
2 Tbs water

Combine all ingredients in a saucepan and simmer until apples are tender. Serve hot or cold.

I don't know why I feel the need to tell if I've altered the recipe in anyway, but again, with this one--I didn't have 6 apples, only 4 and I didn't use Granny Smith--I used Gala! ;)
