How to combine/join table in Python tabulate?

I've been playing around with Python tabulate module after found it here.

Instead of having separate box when reading it from file, would it be possible to combine/join it?

Here is the sample code and output.

wolf@linux:~$ cat file.txt 
Apples
Bananas
Cherries
wolf@linux:~$

Python code

wolf@linux:~$ cat script.py 
from tabulate import tabulate

with open(r'file.txt') as f:
    for i,j in enumerate(f.read().split(), 1):
        table = [[ i,j ]]
        print(tabulate(table, tablefmt="grid"))
wolf@linux:~$

Output

wolf@linux:~$ python script.py 
+---+--------+
| 1 | Apples |
+---+--------+
+---+---------+
| 2 | Bananas |
+---+---------+
+---+----------+
| 3 | Cherries |
+---+----------+
wolf@linux:~$

Desired Output

wolf@linux:~$ python script.py 
+---+----------+
| 1 | Apples   |
+---+----------+
| 2 | Bananas  |
+---+----------+
| 3 | Cherries |
+---+----------+
wolf@linux:~$

You should create a single table & print that instead of creating table 3 times & printing each:

from tabulate import tabulate

with open(r'temp.txt') as f:
    table = []
    for i,j in enumerate(f.read().split(), 1):
        table.append([ i,j ])
    print(tabulate(table, tablefmt="grid"))

Result:

+---+----------+
| 1 | Apples   |
+---+----------+
| 2 | Bananas  |
+---+----------+
| 3 | Cherries |
+---+----------+
