From immune boosting grapefruit to beautiful spinach, this seasonal produce guide is full of fruits & veggies and healthy recipe ideas that will inspire you to eat fresh and seasonal throughout the month FEBRUARY.
Fruits and vegetables always taste better when they are in season and harvested at the peak of freshness. Eating seasonal rewards me with many benefits from eating fresh foods packed with nutrients to savings in family budget. To make it easier for you to plan your meals as well as make grocery list, I created this seasonal produce guide to inspire you to eat healthy throughout the whole month.
