Mindset of a teacher: Keep fresh fruit fresh, longer!

Hello,

You have probably seen on Pintrest how to keep your fruit/berries stay fresh longer. I have been doing it for a while, it works!! I hate when they go bad so quickly, what a waste of money!

I have done this several times and this is the way I do it:

For a bag of grapes:

1/2 cup Vinegar

4 cups water

1 Container of strawberries:

1/4 cup Vinegar

1 & 1/2 cups water

Small container of blackberries/blueberries:

2 Tablespoons of vinegar

Add water just to the top of your berries.

** Soak in a bowl for about 10 minutes. A little less or more is perfectly fine. Then drain and rinse well. **You want to make sure your fruit is covered with the water/vinegar. It kills the bacteria that makes fruit get bad so quickly.

I put mine in a baggie so that I can grab and go during the week. I also leave some in a bowl in the fridge to make it a convenient snack!

Doing this makes my fruit last for about a week (blackberries last even longer!).
