FRUIT CHUNKS

This one couldn’t be simpler, but it bears repeating: when you must have something sweet, try fruit.

Cutting fruit into biteable chunks makes it easy to snack on, and it’s so tasty, you won’t believe the vitamins, fiber, and hydration you’re getting in every piece. The recipe below will yield a bowl big enough to share—or to keep you going for hours between meals.

Ingredients for one big bowl:

• 1 kiwi
• 1 apple
• 1 mango
• ½ orange for juicing
• 2 tsp raw honey

Tools:

• Big bowl

Steps:

• Cut the fruit up into bite-size chunks
• Squeeze the juice from the orange into a small bowl and mix in the honey
• Combine all the fruit into your big bowl and drizzle the honey-OJ mixture on top. Toss to coat, and get your snack on!

Inspiration:

• If you don’t have plans for the other half of your orange, you can pop out the segments and add them to the mix.
• Like many of my favorite recipes, this one is fun and easy to experiment with. Try different fruit medleys and different sweeteners (pineapple juice? a drizzle of maple syrup?) to open up whole new worlds of flavor.
• Digestion-wise, fruit is best eaten alone (as a snack by itself) or at end of a meal, ideally preceded by a green salad.
