Sweet Apple Salad

Nature's treat is a fresh juicy apple. Yet I can't help but adulterate my apples with real maple syrup. It makes them taste sweet and buttery, like a dessert. For this salad, the fresh crisp apples are the best. No mealy mushy apples need apply. When we lived in Montana, we had an apple tree in the front yard. In the Fall, after the first frost, they turned pink and sweet. Perfect time to make this salad.

6 crisp juicy apples (cored, sliced, and diced to bite-sized pieces)
juice from 1/2 a lemon
1/4 c. grade B real maple syrup
1/2 c. raisins
1/2 c. chopped pecans

Mix diced apples and the lemon juice. Add remaining ingredients and stir.
