Absolutely! A fresh fruit salad is refreshing, colorful, and super easy to make. Here’s a simple, classic recipe:
Ingredients (4–6 servings):
-
1 cup strawberries, hulled and sliced
-
1 cup grapes, halved
-
1 cup pineapple, diced
-
2 kiwis, peeled and sliced
-
1 apple or pear, diced
-
1 orange, peeled and sectioned (or juice only)
-
1–2 tsp honey (optional, for sweetness)
-
Juice of 1 lime (optional, for freshness)
-
Optional: mint leaves for garnish
Instructions:
-
Prepare the fruit:
-
Wash, peel, and cut all fruit into bite-sized pieces.
-
-
Mix together:
-
Place all fruit in a large bowl. Drizzle with honey and lime juice if using.
-
-
Toss gently:
-
Mix carefully to combine, so the fruit pieces don’t get mushy.
-
-
Serve:
-
Chill for 15–30 minutes for extra refreshing flavor. Garnish with mint leaves if desired.
-
✅ Tips:
-
Use seasonal fruit for the best flavor.
-
To prevent browning of apples or pears, toss them in a little lime juice.
-
For a tropical twist, add mango, papaya, or coconut flakes.
-
Optional: add a small sprinkle of chili powder or Tajín for a Mexican-style spicy kick.
If you want, I can give a “fun party version” that layers fruit with yogurt, granola, and a drizzle of honey—basically a fruit parfait in a bowl, but still super fresh and simple.
