dragonfruitApples, bananas, grapes, and oranges ... all good and healthy choices, but after a while they can start to feel a little boring. Mixing it up and trying a more unusual fruit not only adds interest -- it likely adds a nutritional boost as well. Different color categories of fruits and vegetables provide different nutrients. For example, red fruits and vegetables tend to be high in lycopene.

If you want to try a new taste, give some of these unusual fruits a try:

  • Baby kiwi
  • Prickly pear
  • Cherimoya
  • Kiwano melon
  • Kumquat
  • Tamarillo
  • Lychee
  • Feijoa
  • Passion fruit
  • Dragonfruit
  • Pomegranate
