My husband gave this a five star rating and didn't even care that it was a Weight Watchers recipe. Fairly easy to make and looks very nice when you transfer to a platter. My kids weren't happy about the onions, but enjoyed the rest of the meal and were looking for extra apples. - 8/18/08

Thanks for the rating! Glad you guys liked it. I hate onions, so I didn't eat them either, just didn't put them on my plate. It still lends a good flavor to the dish. We wanted more apples too! :-)
