January Recipe of the MonthBreakfast Fruit Cup
 
Start each day of the New Year with a nutritious, fun breakfast. Oranges, an excellent source of vitamin C, can help you stay well in the New Year by helping your body to fight off illness and keeping the immune system healthy. Many oranges that you will find in the grocery store are being picked in California.  For more information on oranges, visit the Harvest of the Month website. Also, as we get close to National Canned Food Month in February, think about using canned fruits to make your own favorite fruit cup.
