Cherry Season Is HERE!

With the longer days and warming temperatures come delicious seasonal fruits. One of our favorite little fruits begins its peak timing in July- the cherry! 

This bitesize stone fruit is low on the glycemic index (a rating of 25) and rich in nutrients like fiber, vitamins and minerals. Full of anthocyanins (an anti-inflammatory compound), and antioxidants, cherries pack quite the punch when it comes to healthy benefits! In fact, they can also be attributed to improved sleep, as they are a natural source of melatonin. 

You can use cherries in the place of many of the llinea™ recipes we offer, like this no-sugar added galette from Stem + Spoon! Simply swap the blueberries for pitted cherries and enjoy.
