Who wants to see my Fruit Basket????

Uhhhh, I mean my Basket o' Fruits and Veggies! Okay, I hesitate to share this information with the world because I'm selfish (there are only a select number of spots per site) but anyone who knows me, knows I can't find a good deal and not brag about it! These fruits and veggies come from a co-op called Bountiful Baskets. Basically you sign up for your produce on Monday from the Bountiful Baskets Website and then pick it up on Saturday (in your own laundry basket) at your designated location. Easy, huh? And CHEAP!!! I got all this produce for $15!!!


Here's What I got:

  • a bunch of Romaine Lettuce
  • a bunch of celery
  • a bag of potatoes
  • 3 bunches of broccoli
  • 4 artichokes
  • 6 mangoes
  • 18 clementines
  • 4 tomatoes
  • 4 zucchini's
  • 2 bunches of bananas
  • a bag of apples

Now, you don't get to pick what you get, but DANG, I didn't know I liked mangoes and I would NEVER have bought artichokes...it's kinda adventurous and fun!

Alex and Rachel couldn't wait to taste the "healthy food"...oh boy, what does that say about my cooking?

And here's a direct quote for Rachel, "If everyone ate all the fruits and vegetables in the whole world, then we would all have diarrhea everyday!"
Insightful.
So, if you're interested, check out the website. They have a ton of different sites all over Utah and in Arizona and Idaho. Thanks Maranda for the tip!
