Right now is peak season for Florida Grapefruit. Now is the time to head into Publix and add that juicy, sweet fruit to your cart!
Florida grapefruit is one of my favorites and perfect as a snack, breakfast or used in so many sweet or savory dishes. It’s so versatile and packed with great nutrition.
Speaking of what’s on the inside… Did you know that Florida Grapefruit is an excellent source of Vitamin C – just half of a medium grapefruit fulfills 100% of the daily recommended value! It’s the perfect fruit for folks watching their waistline.
Now when you go to choose your fruit don’t worry about what it looks like on the outside. All those things that help enhance the taste of grapefruit during Florida’s growing season can blemish its exterior appearance. So while it may not be pretty on the outside, you’ll still get that delicious taste once you cut into the fruit!
Next time you are shopping, be sure to grab some Florida Grapefruit. If you need some recipe ideas, be sure to head over to the Florida Department of Citrus website. Try the bruschetta recipe below…it’s quick, easy and so delicious!
