Green apples are not just a delicious fruit to snack on, they can help out in so many savory dishes. The crunchiness and tartness of the apples are sometimes really needed in the kitchen, so don’t be afraid to add them to your favorite recipes! Here are some ones to start you out and then you can totally make it your own.

Coleslaw

Although there seems to be enough crunch going on in this dish, even a little bit of green apple really goes a long way. Mixed in with red or green cabbage, carrots, and green onions, it really helps cut down on the creaminess of the mayo dressing.

Curried Lentil Soup

Making lentil soup is such an amazing way to feed a crowd for cheap, but the pureed soup can sometimes get monotonous by the end. To stop that, throw in some texture and brightness from green apples! It will help lighten up the soup and have everyone coming back for seconds.

Kohlrabi Apple Salad

Another crunchy vegetable, kohlrabi gets amped up even more with the addition of a green apple. The kohlrabi is not very flavorful, so adding them to a tart ingredient like green apple will help mellow each other out.
