Calling All Fruit Recipes!
In my continual pursuit of healthy living and nutritional eating, I am always on the lookout for new and interesting recipes. I have a lot of old favorites, but I’m always up for trying something new and, yes, even a bit odd. I’ve been looking at that requirement on the Food Pyramid that suggests five to nine servings a day of fruits and vegetables for optimal health. I love fruit and I don’t have trouble finding a place for it in my daily diet - as a treat. I can eat an apple as a snack, put peaches on my oatmeal or enjoy strawberries over ice cream. These ideas are fine.
What I really want right now is a serious fruit recipe - you know what I mean - something that incorporates food into a main course item in a meal. That’s what I want to ask you about. If you have a “serious” fruit recipe that you would like to share with the world, drop an e-mail and tell me all about it. I promise to include it in an upcoming post.
