Refreshing, tangy, sweet and no-fat all in one! I love this recipe; it's wonderful on plain baked or grilled chicken or fish, and perfect with cheese quesadillas. I'm guessing that it would be a different and delicious accompaniment to lamb, also. Plus, it keeps well; the lime juice helps the apple to remain fresh-looking.
