Seasonal Summer Fruits & Veggies
You may know nectarines as the sister fruit to peaches — without all the fuzz. Like other stone fruits, nectarines are in season during the summer months and reach their peak in July and August. These yummy fruits are low-fat and sodium-free, making them a great choice to satisfy your sweet tooth while staying healthy! Choose firm nectarines with smooth skin. Once ripe, keep nectarines at room temperature.
