With farmers’ markets opening their doors and home gardens slowly beginning to produce, you might have a lot of delicious fruits and vegetables on hand. One way to save money on groceries is to stock your pantry with the essential dry and canned goods and then supplement with fresh produce each week. I love combining fruit into my savory recipes for a fresh and light twist! For those who are also doing Weight Watchers or trying to stick to healthier meal options, I’m including WW Freestyle Points values for each recipe!
