Lunch Buddies Cinnamon Applesauce
I like adding applesauce to my lunch or dinner occasionally because it tastes good and it’s not what I consider to be a “heavy” side, like, for example, beans or even certain kinds of vegetables. Applesauce is light, yet it’s not light on flavor, and that’s what I enjoy …
