Whether your counter is overflowing with the season's fresh produce from your favorite conventional or organic grocery store delivery, or you're aiming to save time by adding staples to your freezer stash, you can stay cool with these freezer-friendly foods.
Not only is freezing some of your favorite summer produce an easy way to extend its shelf life, but it's also a great way to save and savor the tastes of summer that future you will thank you for. So, make space in your freezer for these three refreshing fruits.
Turn Tomatoes Into Flavorful Meal Bases
Summer is the season for juicy heirloom tomatoes, but did you know you can freeze your excess tomatoes and save them for a delicious and nourishing meal later on? Frozen tomatoes can be thawed for a quick weeknight pizza sauce or as the base for a soup or chili. Just wash, dry, and chop your tomatoes before sealing them in a freezer-safe bag.
Transform Mangoes Into Refreshing Smoothies
For a tropical-inspired smoothie sans the sand, try freezing your surplus mango. Simply add your chopped-up, frozen mango to a blender with spinach and your preferred base, like whole milk or coconut milk (or another plant-based option), for sips that'll transport you straight to the tropics. With avocados peaking their heads from your conventional or organic produce delivery box, you can even freeze and add them for a creamy, rich texture to your smoothie. You can also swap the mango for pineapple or even add both!
Take Berries and Make Them Into Delightful Ice Cubes
Sweet summer berries are delicious on their own, but did you know you can turn them into refreshing ice cubes? Stay hydrated this summer with fruit-forward ice cubes that satisfy your sweet tooth and add a summer vibe to plain water or serve as a fun addition to poolside cocktails and mocktails. Simply cut up strawberries, blueberries, and blackberries, place them in a freezer tray with water, and pop them out when you're ready to sip!
