Winter, spring, summer, fall…anytime is the right time for fruit. Winter offers zesty citrus, spring introduces apricots and strawberries, summer's loaded with everything from blueberries to watermelon, and autumn apples can't be beat. While they're delicious right out of the fridge or plucked from your garden, fruit can be even better in salads, main dishes, side dishes, breads, appetizers, desserts…and beverages, too.

Now's your chance to show us your best fruit-filled recipes for two and win a great prize in our "Fruit Fest" contest.
