Fruit Plate

Whenever I’m invited to a party, one of the things I always offer to bring is a fruit plate. It’s super easy to put together because there is no cooking, just cutting and washing. Fruit is great to eat during appetizers or dessert. It’ll be the best and healthiest sweet treat on the table because it is a whole food and has a variety of nutrients and minerals. Fruit plates present beautifully and the host of the get together will love your consideration.

Here is how to put a fruit plate together:

• use in season fruit because they taste the best
• select at least 3 fruits
• buy organic for any fruit on the EWG’s Dirty Dozen. Strawberries and apples in the photo are on the EWG’s Dirty Dozen so I bought organic
• peel and cut off all inedible parts of the fruit so people can easily pick and eat – pile the fruit high, it looks grand and presents beautifully
