- Top your
cereal with apples, bananas, berries or raisins.
- Bulk up
chicken salad by tossing in grapes and sliced apples.
- Apples
won't weigh you down; take one with you to work for a snack.
- Add
berries or sliced bananas to low-fat or fat-free yogurt.
- Citrus
segments - oranges, clementines, tangerines and even grapefruit -
are refreshing ingredients in green salads.
- Instead
of a candy bar, munch on mixed dried fruit (raisins, apricots,
cherries, prunes).
- Fruit
slushies and smoothies are low in calories, delicious and
satisfying.
- Serve
fruit wedges with a low-fat yogurt dip.
- Make a
"baked" apple in the microwave: Put a cored apple on a
microwavable plate. Pour a couple of tablespoons of orange or lemon
juice around it, and put two teaspoons of raisins inside. Sprinkle
with cinnamon, pierce and cook on high for five minutes.
- Work
melons into the beginning or end of your meal. Perfectly ripened
melon slices make a tasty first course. Melon balls mixed with
berries are a luscious dessert. Buy melons that feel heavy in your
hand; check for a distinctive, sweet fragrance.
