Natural Fruit Wash and Preservative

I love to wash my fruit with lemon essential oil.  It's a great way to naturally remove all the waxes, chemicals, and dirt that may be lurking on your fruit.  Plus I find it helps preserve the fruit for a longer period.  My strawberries will last 2 weeks in the fridge (if my kids don't gobble them up) instead of just 1.

Add 3-5 drops of lemon oil to a large glass bowl.


Fill bowl halfway to 3/4 full of water

Add fruit (apples, pears, strawberries, you name it) and let it soak for 1+ minutes.

You can enjoy your fruit immediately if you want to enjoy the lemon taste.  The lemon will fade after a while.

Winter Fruit Salad with Lemon Essential Oil Dressing

This is one of my favorite salad dressing recipes.  It's so fresh and clean and reminds me that summer is just around the corner even if there's 15 inches of snow outside.  Enjoy!

Winter Fruit Salad


1 head romaine lettuce, rinsed, dried and torn into bite
4 ounces shredded cheese – Swiss or Mozzerella
1 cup nuts – cashews, almonds, pecans, walnuts
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1 apple, peeled, cored and cubed
1 pear, cubed (optional)

Combine all ingredients and toss.  Drizzle with lemon essential oil dressing




Lemon Essential Oil Dressing


1/4 cup honey
6-8 drops lemon essential oil (doTERRA's CPTG oil only)
2 teaspoons diced onions
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon poppy seed

In a blender or food processor, combine honey, olive oil, lemon oil, onion, mustard and salt. Process until well blended.  Add poppy seeds and process just a few seconds more to mix.  Store in an airtight container. It will keep for several weeks in the fridge.
