While it may be hard to find fresh guava, you can always enjoy the fruit's tropical taste when it is dried, for an invigorating snack; lemon juice is the only preservative added here, along with a bit of sugar for a sweeter treat.
These little round fruits with their creamy flesh and edible seeds may not be widely known here in the U.S., but they are incredibly fragrant - and are yet another superfruit to add to your arsenal. The flavor is hard to pin down, but has been described as similar to a pear that's been crossed with a strawberry, with subtle notes of banana, pineapple, and lemon (which is what they smell like) tossed in. Imagine that!
As incredible as that may seem, guava is also a nutrient powerhouse, with as much potassium as bananas and more vitamin C and iron than most other fruits. Guava is also purported to help give your skin more radiance and fewer wrinkles; it is also touted as being a great stress buster. That goes especially for dried guava, since the nutrients are more concentrated. So treat yourself to a taste sensation that will do your body good, too.
