¼ cup(s) Chives, chopped
1 Tbsp Oil, olive
1 tsp Sugar, white
½ tsp Salt, table
¼ tsp Pepper, black, or more to taste
2 oz Cheese, feta, French-variety suggested, crumbled

Place apples in a large bowl and toss with lemon juice. Add carrots, chives, oil, sugar, salt, pepper and cheese; toss to mix thoroughly. Yields about 3/4 cup per serving.
