Giant Fruit Salad
Sunday is a great day to make giant bowls of stuff you can eat all week. I like to make big pots of soup or other big entr�es for healthy leftovers throughout the week. Fruit salad is super-easy to make; it's just a hassle to chop everything. I find it can be a nice Zen-like activity while I'm watching the Sunday news programs or sports. The best fruit salads use fruits that are in season and contain a variety of colors. It's not just that the colors make for a lovely presentation, but the more colors you have, the bigger range of antioxidants you have. By tossing the fruit in lemon juice, you can prevent the fruit from turning brown, so it will still be appetizing the next day.
You can layer the fruit with yogurt for a delicious parfait, or add some granola or nuts for a little crunch, too.
