To make this snack plate you’ll need to grab naturally sweet treats that are in the red/pink color scheme in the produce section. This snack is excellent for an after school snack or a dessert plate this valentines day. If you want to help balance out the blood sugar spike choose another fiber option like whole wheat or a nut based cracker and top it with a creamy spreadable cheese like brie or ricotta that pairs well with these fruits.
