An Apple a day keeps some inches away

Hi SG, I am there for you

Am not a fruit person too...... I could eat very few fruits like grapes, jackfruit, mango. However, from Sep 1st am in a challenge to include fruits in my diet. Am managing somehow. Will update here everyday.

 

I hate eating fruits .. So I make my smoothie (1 apple, 1 banana, few berries ) daily 2 glasses .. Only water included !

 

One trick when you have fruits that are going to go bad (not bad yet though) is to cook them and refrigerate. Also, bananas can be cut in sections and frozen for use in smoothies later. You fruit haters may find that cooked fruit is more palatable than raw...just a guess. Apples slices can be fried in a little butter with cinnamon and a little brown sugar...really yummy. Pears can be poached in fruit juice and grated ginger. Grapes can be used in a lot of salads.

 

I love fruit but since you don't one way is to disguise the taste that u dislike with the one that u love. Like make a cut in the middle of a banana fill the cut with lemon juice and sprinkle chaat masala on it. The tanginess overpowers other taste and then u dont mind it so much. Or make a smoothie/puree and add some sugar and whatever flavour you like and drink with straw which will help minimise contact with taste buds.

Or sneak them in during cooking process such as during baking or make raspberry or blueberry coulis, make ice blocks of fruit juice and milk shakes . Where there is a fruit there is a way.

Thus far i have eaten two fruits today. ( orange and grapes).

 

Ok i get u. I will try and keep some fruits one of each kind in a fruit basket on the countertop in kitchen all washed and ready to eat. This way i will get reminded to eat and sometimes eat out of sheer laziness as its so handy rather than fixing something else.

i am planning to eat grapes pear and an apple today.
