Produce Spray Recipe– The benefits of consuming fresh, organically grown produce are wonderful. But I wouldn’t recommend shoveling down a mouthful of grapes while walking through the local grocery store. All organic as well as non-organic produce needs a little prep work before we eat it. Chemicals, fertilizers, and parasites are prevalent in so many of our favorite healthy snacks!
Prepping your fresh produce can be done quickly and easily. Plus, this is an all natural way that’s safe for everyone. This recipe uses only 3 ingredients but packs a punch when it comes to killing off germs and parasites. By spraying your fruits and vegetables, you’re eliminating germs, parasites, and stripping away harmful pesticides.
What You’ll Need:
- Spray top bottle
1 cup vinegar
8 drops grapefruit seed extract
20 drops grapefruit essential oil
Directions:
Combine all ingredients in the bottle and shake well.
Spray your fruits and vegetables with the prep solution.
Allow your produce to sit for 5-10 minutes before rinsing thoroughly. If you are washing a large amount of produce, repeat this process a few times.
Since the oils are extremely concentrated and the solution incorporates vinegar, this prep solution will keep for several weeks- making it a great, affordable way to keep yourself and your family healthy, while eating your favorite healthy snacks!
