Stock Your Kitchen with Healthy Honeybells

Honeybells are almost here and it’s time to order some so you can restock your kitchen. Honeybells are one of the best citrus fruits to cook with. The rich, sweet taste of Honeybells can be used in both savory and sweet cooking. The large amounts of juice contained in each low calorie Honeybell fruit can be used for everything from making sorbet to drinking fresh for a tangy breakfast treat. But Honeybells are one of the most popular citrus fruits because of their unique taste and huge amounts of juice so if you don’t order now you may not get any at all this year. Often the growers who accept orders all year for these delicious fruits will sell out the entire crop before they even start picking the fruit. And if bad weather hits or the weather causes a small crop then even the people who did order early may not get any. You should always order Honeybells well in advance of the Christmas season when they come into season. Most Honeybells are at their peak from around Christmas time in late December through the first week in February.

Once you have your Honeybells make sure that you set aside a number of them just for snacking. Tasty Honeybells have around 50 calories per fruit so they are the perfect healthy food to satisfy all those leftover sugar cravings from the holidays without eating a ton of cookies or candy. When you eat Honeybells you’re also getting the Vitamin C, Vitamin B, Folic Acid and other nutrients your immune system needs to fight off diseases so you will stay healthy even in the middle of winter when colds and flu are usually at their strongest. You should also use some Honeybells to make things that you can enjoy all year round like Honeybell marmalade or Honeybell butter. Combine Honeybells with oranges or grapefruits to create your own unique marmalades and jellies that you can use on sandwiches or as a topping for ice cream or waffles or pancakes. In the summer Honeybell preserves made with oranges are a super refreshing treat when mixed with fresh berries or served on ice cream or sorbet. You can also freeze some wonderful Honeybell juice and use it throughout the year for smoothies, sorbets, and other delicious treats.

So if you haven’t ordered your Honeybells yet this year what are you waiting for? Order Honeybells online today to make sure that you are able to restock your kitchen when they’re in season again.
