Spiced Apple Nachos – Sweet, Crunchy & Good-for-You
When my autoimmune flares started, I thought game-day snacks had to be off-limits—too much grease, sugar, and processed food. But I quickly learned that healthy can also be fun, festive, and so satisfying. That’s where these Spiced Apple Nachos come in.
Instead of chips, we use crisp apple slices as the base. Drizzle them with warm almond butter, sprinkle with cozy spices like cinnamon, and top with crunchy nuts or seeds. The result? A sweet-meets-spicy nacho plate that feels indulgent but keeps your body happy. Perfect for football season, fall nights, or even a quick dessert.
