Hello - long time lurker and first time poster. I enjoy reading these threads as I maintain (I am doing WW point counting (did the program in Atlanta about 10 years ago) but don't go to meetings as one is not available to me here in Macau).

Tried this recipe the other day and it was really good:

http://foodiezone.blogspot.com/2008/04/balsamic-apples.html

I tried to keep the portions as 1/2 T sugar, 1 apple (quartered and cut thinly - like twice the thickness of matchsticks) and about 2 T balsamic vinegar - total recipe is 2 pts (I count 1/2 points).

I did keep it in the oven longer - just till the balsamic vinegar was 'done.'

The vinegar caramelizes into a lovely sauce (no vinegar taste) and is better than keeping jarred caramel sauce in the house.

I originally found this on www.skinnygourmet.blogspot.com under desserts, which I am discovering to also be a fun recipe reference.

Enjoy!
