Apricots
Apricots carry Vitamin C like most other fruits, but they're also a great source of fiber - something most people don't get enough of in their diet. While eating fresh fruit with the skin is always best, dried apricots make a great snack.

Apples
It doesn't get any more common than this. There's a reason the old saying "An Apple a day keeps the doctor away." Apples are high in fiber and also contains a lot of Vitamins. With a wide variety of apples available, this is something that should be in your daily diet.

Cranberries
