Peter Piper Picked A Peck.....

Fresh fruit and vegetables are a staple in our house.  We make two trips to the grocery store every week to keep up with the demand.  We use fresh as long as we can get them throughout the year.  I was never a big fan of canned vegetables because of the salt and the process they go through, but hey when I absolutely need to use them, I do.   

I love colorful peppers, they are loaded with so many good things for you.  Roast them with olive oil in the oven, stuff them, use them in soups, eat them raw in salads or just by themselves, they are awesome!  All the colorful peppers do taste different, the yellow is the best tasting, the red has the most nutrients and is one the healthiest vegetables you can eat.
Berries, we eat a lot of those too.  Blueberries, blackberries, strawberries, raspberries, they are a very healthy food, full of flavor and you can also use them in so many ways.  I make jam in the summer, use them for all kinds of desserts, eat them on cereal, use them in salads, make salsa from them or just eat them plain.
