Frozen grapes

Although I am on a lower carb, paleo diet, meaning fruit intake is minimal, I have always loved frozen purple grapes. I think these are a great paleo dessert, when I crave a sweet snack.

Freezing fruit seems to bring out more of the sweet flavor, and eating it frozen means I won't go crazy, inhaling too much! 

Ingredients:
Purple grapes

Directions:
Rinse grapes in cool water, separate from stems. Place on cookie sheet in flat, even layer. Freeze until solid, at least a few hours. 


Once frozen, remove from cookie sheet, and store in container in freezer. Don't allow to sit out too long, or else they will melt, and then refreeze in a clump.




Cook's notes:
  • You can freeze the grapes in bunches, but I find it's easier to eat them when they are separated prior to freezing, so they come out in singles, rather than clumps. 
  • I always coat my cookie sheet in foil, for easier clean-up.
