Try to purchase only the amount of fresh fruits and vegetables you will eat in the next few days. member that fruits and vegetables come in forms, including frozen, canned, or dried, which last longer.
Properly storing fruits and vegetables can also help minimize spoilage. Here are some ways to use fresh fruits and vegetables before they spoil:
- Steam fresh vegetables. Allow them to cool and then place in air-tight containers and freeze. Use later in soups, casseroles, or re-heat for quick side dishes.
- Mash ripe bananas and freeze in 1/4 cup servings. Use for smoothies or homemade whole-grain breads.
- Squeeze the juice of oranges, grapefruit, lemons, or limes in a bowl. Mix with water and pour in ice trays. Freeze for flavorful ice cubes that add a fresh citrus essence to water or tea.
- Be creative. Add different fruits and vegetables to your favorite dishes to create new flavor twists.
