Now is a great time to start enjoying the fresh fruits coming into season. This time of year strawberries, blueberries, cherries, certain varieties of grapes, and watermelons are great picks. When shopping for fruits look for firmness in the flesh, skin that is free from blemishes, holes or breaks. Peel and dice your fruit, create a mixed fruit salad and portion into single servings for easy access throughout the week. When fruits are in season their natural sugar is enough to satisfy any sweet tooth, so next time you are at the store skip the desserts and grab the fruit. For more information on fruits that are seasonal local and fresh visit the Georgia Organics website.
Enjoy!
