Welcome to Jackfruit Week!What is jackfruit, you may be asking? It is a tropical fruit that is considered to be the largest tree-borne fruit in the world…one fruit said to grow up to 100 lbs! It boasts huge amounts of fiber…7 grams in each serving! And, jackfruit is incredibly versatile, especially for vegans looking for healthy meat-like substitutes. It is super low calorie, is low on the glycemic index, and a great source of B-complex vitamins. From sweet to savory, this food source truly hits the jackpot! Where do you procure such said fruit? Good question! I have yet to lay my hands on an actual whole fruit, but understand that they can be found in Asian markets. For now, I am fully satisfied with the canned version found at Trader Joe’s. Just a quick drain and rinse, and you are good to go!Up for your Jackfruit recipe consideration today is using it in kabobs. Just thread with your usual kabob fare (zucchini, pineapple, onion, vegan sausage) and lightly brush with a sauce of your choosing (shown here with Coconut Secret Coconut Aminos Teriyaki Sauce). Place on the BBQ for 5-7 minutes, turning once. Serve with a side of brown rice and you have a dinner plate that is high in flavorful, satisfying fiber.
