Summer tree fruitHere are ideas for your refrigerator to help make fruits and veggies more enticing! Make bowls of ready to eat fruits or veggies with a fun theme (keep them covered so they taste fresh):• Salad bowl - Put together lettuce and vegetables in a bowl; refrigerate and cover until ready to serve. It lasts up to 2-3 days without dressing. Give it a theme - summer with peppers, halved cherries, crispy cucumbers; or tomato with various shapes and sizes of tomatoes; or garden carrot and cucumber.• Tree fruit bowl - plums, peaches, cherries, nectarines - this is in our photo and was a favorite - it disappeared quick because it looked festive in the refrigerator• Melon - cubed melon is always a favorite• Berries - offer a variety for even more color• Carrots - Baby carrots in a bowl get eaten fast!For more cooking tips, see our food and cooking products - including ones to help you make cooking demos better!

Judy Doherty, MPS, PCII discovered her love of cooking at her grandmother's side, stirring raisin oatmeal on a Saturday morning. By 15 she had her first food service job. At 18 she was accepted to the Culinary Institute of America, where she graduated second in her class, then went on to the Fachschule Richemont in Switzerland to study pastry arts and baking. A decade with Hyatt Hotels followed before she founded Food and Health Communications with a single conviction: food that is good for you should taste extraordinary.

Judy holds a Master of Professional Studies in Food Business from the Culinary Institute of America, a Bachelor of Science in Culinary Arts from Johnson and Wales University (Summa Cum Laude), two art certificates from UC Berkeley Extension, and the CIA's Pro Chef II certification. She has earned the American Culinary Federation Bronze Medal, Gold Medal, and ACF Chef of the Year award.
