Grapefruit!
Posted on January 1, 2008
I just had the best, juicy grapefruit, fresh from the farmer's market! Grapefruit are a great source of fiber (5.5 grams), Vitamin C (114 mg), folate (33 mcg) and lycopene (3,768 mcg).
Body + Soul magazine offered a great recipe for "Warm Grapefruit Tea", I can't wait to try it:
2 cups fresh grapefruit juice
2-4 TBL honey1 cinnamon stick
1/2 teaspoon whole allspice berries
Combine juice, honey, cinnamon, allspice and 1/2 cup of water in a medium pot. Bring to a boil over high heat; strain and discard solids. Serve with a grapefruit segment or strip of zest. (113 calories, 1 gram protein, 0 grams of fat, 29 grams of carbs, and 0 grams of fiber.)

Great ideas can't wait to try them!
