Prep Time: 23 minsServings: 6
When buying rhubarb, look for thin, crisp, dark pink to red stalks. Be sure to remove and discard the leaves before using since they are poisonous.

Instructions

Preheat broiler.

In a large saucepan, combine rhubarb, apples, orange juice, cinnamon and 3 tablespoon Splenda®.

Cover and cook over MEDIUM heat for 5 to 10 minutes, or until the rhubarb is just tender.

Taste the mixture and add more Splenda® if desired.

Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine bread crumbs, olive oil and brown sugar (2 tablespoons).

Mix well to combine.

Spread mixture on a foil-lined baking sheet and broil until lightly toasted, about 3 minutes.

Spoon half of the bread crumb mixture into the bottom of a shallow serving dish.

Cover with the warm fruit mixture and top with remaining crumb mixture.

Serve warm.

Each serving provides: An excellent source of vitamin C and a good source of calcium, potassium, and fiber.
