Notes
Helpful Tips:
- To peel grapefruits or oranges, slice off top and bottom ends to form 2 flat surfaces. Place 1 flat side down on cutting board. With small paring knife, slice down the sides following the natural curve of the fruit to remove skin and white pith completely.
- In addition to citrus fruits being delicious and refreshing, they also are thought to protect against chronic diseases, cancer and may help to reverse cell damage. Citrus fruits are high in vitamin C, another powerful antioxidant, that helps wounds heal and helps hold blood vessels, tendons, ligaments and bone together.
