    The sweet and salty explodes in your mouth, then there's crunch from the cracker and juice from the granny smith apple...yummmm.

    PLUS, they look amazing so how can you NOT resist this simple but flavorful appetizer?

    After making this - and eating waaay too many, I decided this would be delicious on whole wheat toast, too.

    Are you hungry yet? You are, aren't you? This Bacon Apple Cheese Appetizers Recipe are the perfect tailgating snack, but of course you don't have to just serve them at your football party!

    I know that many people still like to print out recipes and keep them in a recipe binder, or simply have the printed recipe sitting in front of them when it comes time to cook! 

    Sometimes it is just easier to go off a recipe when it is printed right in front of you. Who wants to swipe their screen on their phone or tablet when their hands are greasy? So I love offering this option as well!
