When I was a child we only have tropical fruits in our province. Looking at an apple, an orange or a grape was a very salivating fruit we wanted before but it was only for our eyes only. We could not afford to buy it. When I came here in Saudi Arabia, I thought it is one of my answered prayer and dream comes true. My employer is always buying any kind of fruits but his family members are not even eating it.
These fruits he bought the last few days were just displayed in the table but only me visited it.
Figs- nobody cared to eat this kind. I explained the benefits of eating this one, even once a day but they never like it. I am the only one consuming but I wasn't able to finish it.
Custard apple - it is called atis in the Philippines. This is one of the favorites. My employer forced his wife eating this because she had cancer and the doctor advised them to eat more fruits.
Oranges- only the youngest daughter loves it. It is so sweet.
This banana came from my country. It is too expensive here. Every day my boss mix it with some Arabic bread that I baked.
I didn't finish eating those fruits. It started rotting so before it will be wasted and thrash, I select the remaining good quality and make a fruit cocktail smoothie.
I washed it and sliced.
Blend it in the juice processor for 5 minutes and it looked so yummy.
Look at the finished product. Take note, I never use any kind of sugar. The sweetness of the banana and orange give a good taste.
Ready to serve 5 people.
The fruits are expensive and even if it is cheaper, I could not afford to throw it in the garbage. There are so many people who never eat fruits and veggies. A lot of people who are hungry, that is why I made a solution before throwing it. It's good for my health as well.
We all know the benefits of eating fruits. Why not eating if you can afford to buy it? Just like my employer's family, they don't love eating it.
