Description
Dried fruit is preserved fruit that has been dried by removing most of the water content in the fruit. This creates a much smaller and sweeter piece of fruit that has a longer shelf life.
Store It
- Store dried fruit in a resealable plastic bag in the refrigerator.
Cook It
- Toss dried fruit into trail mix for an on-the-go snack.
- Sprinkle dried fruit on top of salads for a sweet flavor.
Why It's Great
- If you're looking for a sweet treat, a couple small pieces of dried fruit is a healthy way to satisfy your craving.
