Homemade Fruit Leather: Kids Love It!

This recipe is a favorite and we thought we’d share it since school is starting again and these make for a great wholesome snack – it's so good, you might even want to make a few batches! It’s easy, too – just cut the strips in about 5”x 2” and leave the paper attached, roll up and store in an airtight container. This snack is all natural and includes NO fat or cholesterol and only 10 grams of sugar and the best part, kids LOVE it!
