We love fruit in our house! Every single time I go to the grocery store I make sure to pick out 3-4 fresh fruits for us to enjoy all week long. We have several different ways we enjoy fruits. In this post, I will highlight our favorite ways to eat fruit!
As soon as I get home from the store, before anyone eats any fruit I wash our fruits with Arm & Hammer Fruit & Vegetable Wash. This stuff is AMAZING and with the number of things I have seen come out of my fruits and vegetables after washing them with this stuff I will never not use it again (hello, SPIDERS, seriously!).
Here’s what it does and why it’s so cool:
It safely eliminates Pesticides, Wax, and Soil with the cleaning power of pure & simple ingredients like baking soda, salt, and plant-derived cleaning agents. So you don’t have to worry about what you’re washing your fruits and veggies in before you eat them. It’s all safe and simple but very effective!
You can purchase it here and I promise you that you will love it!
Now on to our favorite ways to eat fruit:
- With Reddi-whip or homemade whipped cream sweetened with maple syrup- I have been trying to include more whole foods into our diets so if I have time I’ll make homemade whipped cream and dipping any kind of fruit into whipped cream is SO YUMMY! My whole family loves it!
- Dipped in chocolate- I know, I know, this comes as a surprise to no one. But have you ever dipped a grape into chocolate? It’s SO GOOD! I think most people think of strawberries when they think of fruit dipped chocolate but I have tried everything and loved it all. I don’t do anything special either, just warm up about ¼ c of dark chocolate semi-sweet morsels and dip away.
- Sprinkled with sugar-free jello- hear me out. I haven’t tried this with every fruit but I do this with bananas and grapes frequently and it’s delicious! I just put my fruit in a bowl, then take a little bit of a jello packet and sprinkle it over the fruit very lightly. My jello packets usually last me 4-5 times of making this treat. It just adds a little zing and tastes like an extra yummy treat! My favorite combo is strawberry jello mix and chilled grapes.
There you have it! I hope you liked my ideas. None of these take long to prepare but they are so yummy! Let me know if you have any other ways you love to eat fruit :).
