Fruit Salad

Fruit Salad is an easy way to get everyone to enjoy fruit with a meal, or as a snack. Simply cut up some of your favorite fruits in bite-sized chunks and add a simple yogurt dressing...

Here I've used apples, bananas, pears, raisins, sunflower seeds, almonds, and even some shredded carrots, but don't let that stop you from adding your favorite fruit or vegetables. I use different ones all of the time, depending on what I have available. Just be cautious to not let any particular ingredient overpower the rest.

You can also add granola or trail mix for a crunchy and diversified taste.


The dressing can be 100% yogurt, or if the flavor of yogurt is a bit strong for some, try a combination of yogurt and a small amount of mayonnaise or sour cream to mellow out the taste of the yogurt. The juices from the fruit will also combine with the sauce to make it indescribably delicious.

Here I used 2 parts of vanilla yogurt to 1 part of sour cream.



The lovely glass bowl and bed of lettuce serves as an appetizing way to present the salad. After all, presentation is half the meal! The better it looks the more appetizing it is.
