Summer is less than a month away! The weather is changing, more and more people are already beginning to enjoy more outdoor times and that also means the beginning of the picking season for many Ontario grown fruits and vegetables.

Trust us, we know you’re more likely to order delivery during the colder months. However, farmer’s markets are starting up where you can get nutritious, delicious and healthy fruits and vegetables for you to use in your cooking.

Whether you like to BBQ some veggies, or make a fresh salad, eating lots of fruit and veg can help keep your weight in check during the summer season.

Fruits and vegetables have a much higher fiber and nutrient density compared to typical high carb, low nutrient density and low fiber foods that are overabundant in the typical North American diet
