Fruit Salad
Fruit salad is a great snack and side! Why not make a large batch, for a quick grab out of the refrigerator? This way you can have a healthy, quick snack, or an instant side to any dish, and it’s a great way to add color and sweetness. Most people don’t eat the daily recommended amount of fruit and often opt for other unhealthy snacks. However, if you have fruit salad already prepared, odds are you will eat more fruit.
When preparing meals, most people focus primarily on the main course. By having pre-prepped food options such as fruit salad, makes it easy to provide healthy snacks and sides. Fruit is natures candy and often cures a sweet tooth craving. It is also a much better option than candy or other sugary snacks. Additionally, fruit provides a sweet contrast to the main course and other salty or spicy sides.
Fruit Salad works well for breakfast, as well. It is packed full of vitamins and minerals and provides a boost of energy to start the day. Moreover, fruit beautifully compliments a morning cup of coffee.
