Fruit for the office

Fresh summer fruits - order your office fruits from us.


The following strategies will help you increase your intake:
•Keep fruit at work. Keep apples, bananas, pears and dried fruit in your desk so you’ll have a healthy snack on hand when you feel hungry.
•Keep fruit visible. Decorate your table, kitchen counter or desk with a bowl of fresh fruit, to encourage healthy snacking.
•Include fruit at breakfast. Make a fruit smoothie with milk or soy milk, berries and half a banana. Or top a bowl of breakfast cereal with fresh or dried fruit.
•Serve fruit for dessert. Serve fresh fruit salad, fruit kebabs, frozen grapes, or simply eat a piece of fruit out of your hand, instead of a high calorie treat.
•Add fruit to salads. Toss dried or fresh berries, berries, orange segments or apple slices into green and whole grain salads.
•Consider convenience. Buy packages of frozen berries or cut fruit to add into smoothies. Pick up a fresh food salad or pre-cut fresh fruit.
