Fruits and vegetables

In fact, frozen fruits and vegetables are often superior to the “fresh” ones you find in the supermarket. For good reason, frozen fruits and vegetables are frequently chosen while stocking the freezer.

They have a longer shelf life than fresh food and are packed with vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Additionally, particularly when it comes to producing that is out of season, they are occasionally less expensive than their fresh counterparts. Furthermore, studies have consistently demonstrated that the nutritional value of frozen fruits and vegetables is equivalent to that of fresh. In some circumstances, freezing might even lead to higher nutritional value. For an antioxidant-rich snack, try combining a few frozen berries into a smoothie, or stir-fry some mixed vegetables for a filling lunch or dinner. Nutrients in frozen fruits and vegetables will diminish after about three months, so buy only amounts you’re sure to use. Break up solid blocks of vegetables into smaller amounts by tapping the package lightly before opening it.
