Apple charoset is a healthy side dish full of fruit and nuts that many people enjoy at a Seder. This chunky version is popular with kids and adults.

We’re going to an “evening of Jewish and Christian traditions” at our church tonight, and everyone was asked to bring a batch of apple charoset for a mini-Seder.

There are different varieties of charoset, but it’s basically a salad of fruit and nuts that’s traditionally eaten during the Seder meal. Some versions of charoset are in the form of a paste, but we made a chunkier version with a base of apples and dates. This is popular with adults and kids alike. Even though we aren’t Jewish, I’ll be making this again!

    I just got the recipe from Delicious lunches, made it and loved it! I would love to put it in my lunchbox, but how do you prevent the apples from turning brown? I don’t think lemon is a good option here. Thank you!

      Put just a little bit of lemon juice in some water, and sprinkle it on the apples. It shouldn’t affect the flavor. Good luck!

      You can definitely substitute apple juice. You could even use lemon juice or wine vinegar instead for a different flavor. Other nuts can be used too – walnuts, almonds, pine nuts, etc. Let me know how you like it!
