I too tried this recipe from Eatingwell.com. Though the serving size is a bit off and so are the calories. Should be about 2 - 1 1/2 cups for servings and 246 calories per serving. When I made mine it was very vinegary. So I would make it without the vinegar especially if you have tart apples. - 2/24/11

I made this recipe for Christmas, and it was a HUGE hit!!! This recipe was doubled, except for the last ingredients...not sure why. When I make it, I use 2 Granny Smith apples, 2 tomatoes (chopped/seeded), 6 Tbsp chopped green olives, 1 tsp Worstershire sauce, and 1/2 cup sliced scallion greens. YUM - 1/17/10
