MyPlate's recommended daily serving of fruit is 2 cups. Option A only provides a half cup of strawberries and a half grapefruit. Option B, consuming 1 cup of orange juice at every meal, is not recommended as it can lead to overconsumption of sugar and does not provide the fiber content of whole fruits. Option D only offers ¼ cup of dried apricots, which is not equivalent to a full serving of fruit. Option C provides a medium pear for lunch and a cup of fruit salad with dinner, totaling to 2 cups of fruit for the day. This option also includes a variety of fruits, offering a range of nutrients.
