3 qts. apple juice
3 Tbsps. cinnamon
3 qts. water
1 qt. lemon juice
1 gal. green apples, diced
6 cups walnut pieces
1 cup fresh parsley, chopped

  1. Prepare rice pilaf according to package directions, except use apple juice instead of the amount of water called for in the instructions. Add enclosed seasoning packets.

  2. In a separate bowl, combine water and lemon juice. Soak apples in the water/lemon juice mixture to prevent browning. Drain apples.

  3. Combine walnuts, parsley and apples with the hot rice. Garnish with additional walnut pieces, if desired. Hold covered in warming cabinet or steamtable on medium setting for 3 hours.
