Fresh Fruits are perfect with breakfast, as an after school snack, and with dinner.
Thymely Tip: When purchasing fruit try not to purchase more fruit than your family can consume before your next trip to the grocery store. Remember to eat more perishable berries and bananas before less perishable fruits like oranges and melons. Save money by buying berries in bulk. Wash, dry and freeze them in one cup portions. Then use the frozen berries in smoothies, perfect for a quick breakfast and snack.
Fruit Smoothy
1 cup frozen or fresh berries
1 cup ice
1/2 cup orange juice or milk
1/4-1/2 cup greek yogurt (any flavor)
Blend until smooth.
Smoothies are a great “on the go” healthy breakfast or snack, and a pefect way to use ripe fruit before it goes bad.
