We are so excited to announce the latest healthy-living initiative from Dole, inspired by Disney’s Ultimate Princess Celebration, a Disney global event. Continuing through September 30, 2021, Dole’s “A Recipe for Courage and Kindness” is the fresh produce provider’s largest healthy-living initiative ever and celebrates the 12 Disney Princesses with healthy original recipes, fun DIY activities, contests, collectable Dole Bananas stickers, and virtual special events.

The campaign kicked off in May with four recipes created by Dole’s recipe-development team led by Melanie Marcus, MA, RD, Dole nutrition and health communications manager, which honored Disney’s Snow White, Cinderella, Aurora and Merida. Additional recipes honoring the remaining eight Princess are being released on a rolling basis, which include holidays themed to the heroines, such as Ariel and Moana on World Oceans Day on June 8, Belle on Bastille Day (French Independent Day) on July 14, Tiana on National Chef Day on July 16 and Rapunzel on National Hair Day on Oct. 1.

We selected two recipes to feature here as a sneak peek into all the amazing recipes that Dole has released on www.Dole.com/Disney as part of this healthy-living initiative!
