Eating Healthier with Seasonal Fruits and Vegetables

It’s that time of year again, when fruits and veggies are available all throughout the nation for your tantalizing taste-buds to enjoy. Also, they are at a much cheaper price than during the winter months, so take advantage of that and use them in your meal preparations for dinner, or throw some in a bag for a mid-day snack.

I love using seasonal fruits and vegetables because they not only taste better and look better, but if you buy them at the market like I do, you are buying local and supporting your local economy. At many farmer’s markets you can find delicious fruits and veggies. If you have no idea where a farmer’s market is around you, I found this awesome site with a listing of local markets by state.

I know you are reading this, and wondering what my favorite summer fruits and vegetables are. Well, I love blueberries and strawberries, along with fresh pineapple, and pounce on fresh green peppers whenever I can.

What is your favorite summer fruit or vegetable? Leave a comment below and let me know how you use your favorite produce items.
