Cup of Fruit.

Mike is allergic to all raw fruits and vegetables. Sad. I can eat some of them raw, but Mike can't unless I cook them. This makes having fruit in anything less than pie form rather difficult, though I have managed to make some sorbet. And I like the little fruit cups that they sell but those suckers are loaded with sugar and frankly the containers are wasteful. SOLUTION TIME! I made my own. Peaches are in season and mangoes seem to be ripe so I cut them up, gave them a quick blanch and shock (a quick dip in boiling water then ice water) and was done. We can now have healthy fruit snacks during the day with now averse reaction. Yay! I got these leak proof little containers at Earth Fare and they are the perfect size for a late afternoon snack.

The fruit is delicious. But the containers are not as leak-proof as advertised.
