Reader Tip: Fruit Gone Bad? Freeze it Up (...and then GREEN-It-Up!)

If you're like me, it's SUCH a challenge to figure out the right amount of produce to purchase. {Remember to go organic when purchasing these fruits!} Get too little and you have to go to the grocery store WAY too often.  Get too much and it's going bad before you even get a taste!  Today I'm passing along a handy little tip from a reader.  She shares in reference to the Green-It-Up Fruit Smoothie recipe, but it goes for anytime you find your fruit looking a little past its prime :)

Delish!  Love a little green in the ol smoothie!  Tip - freeze your fruits & then you won't have to put ice. This eliminates the drink from being too icey but it's still slushy from the frozen fruits (better!).  I just freeze my fruit when it looks like it's about to go bad so I always have lots of little baggies of frozen strawberry banana!
**Remember:  Organic fruits are cheaper when they're in season!  Check out this chart to direct you to which fruits are currently in season!
