Happy New Year!
We love that Bountiful Baskets saves people lots of money, and that’s certainly a large part of our mission! AND… the value extends way beyond that. Are serious about making changes in how you eat? Take a look at these things:
Variety and Selection – We all have our favorites, but science shows that changing it up and getting a full complement of fruits and veggies really helps our health. There are different phytonutrients in each fruit and vegetable and they are each beneficial in their own way! We get local whenever we can, and that reduces our carbon footprint and gets you seasonal produce at its peak.
Timeline and Accessibility – Commitment to eat a basket a week, or one every other week, keeps you on track! It provides incentive to eating whole foods and reducing other not-so-nutritious snacks. If you want to see how much better you can feel, eliminate added sugar and processed foods in favor of fruits and vegetables!
Community and Accountability – Get involved at your site! The friendships and fun will keep you coming back and eating healthy. Having a social aspect to your changes will really help them stick! It’s nice to be part of a group is passionate about produce and can suggest recipes and fun ways to eat the variety you get!

 Organic Basket

Just as cool as the Conventional Basket but 100% USDA Certified Organic Produce!

So if GMOs concern you, please go with this option.

Honeycrisp Apples
Approx 48 count
Approx 38 Lb
Crisp, juicy, and sweet, these cause mayhem the moment they’re inside my door. Store in the refrigerator crisper drawer for a relatively long life; as with any produce, keep checking and pull those that start to look a little sad to maintain the quality of the rest.

 Cauliflower
Approx 12 count
Do you eat a paleo or low carb diet, or do you just make sure to serve a veggie or two every night for dinner? Either way this is a great opportunity to get your hands on lots of Cauliflower to par boil and freeze! Make last-minute dinners easy, and don’t forget to prep and freeze cauliflower crust for gluten-free pizza! Roasted cauliflower soup is divine. Roast the whole head: Brush with olive oil, sprinkle with garic, and roast the whole head. Or, if you want an absolutely amazing and kid-friendly dish:
Parmesan Cauliflower Bites
Steam cauliflower florets to just-tender
Dip one side in egg wash, then dip in Parmesan cheese,
Pan-fry in a bit of olive oil until golden brown and delicious!
Our kids will annihilate two heads of cauliflower in one sitting when we prepare it this way. A Sally family secret recipe… now not-so-secret!

 Minneola Tangeloes
Approx 150 count
Sweet and delicious tangelos! A great addition to any lunchbox. These are so flavorful. High sugar content, so don’t leave them sitting! They make a lovely juice to kick off your morning.
|
|
Dancy Tangerine
Approx 176 count
These small tangerines are thin skinned and easy to peel. They have dark orange flesh and seeds, with a sweet tart flavor. Perfect for lunchboxes and snacks. An easy bump to our Vitamin C intake during cold season! Refrigerate to hold ripeness level.
