When you hear the word “fruit,” usually the typical names pop to mind: apple, banana, pear, orange, peach, etc. But this month you’ll need to think outside the box, as it is Root Vegetable and Exotic Fruits Month. Have you ever heard (or tasted) any of these?
You can use a fruit knife to taste-test some of these fruits (although some have a hard outer shell, so you might need something a bit stronger!)

Mix the above ingredients together, place in your crust, and bake! Enjoy!
If summer had an official fruit, what would it be? Peaches, blueberries, raspberries? No. Hands down, I bet it would be watermelon. Today is Watermelon Day!

Any of these should do the trick!
