VERY BASIC FRUIT SALAD



Very Basic Fruit Salad image

I love how simple and refreshing this is and the ability to adjust the recipe for the types of fruits which are fresh in your local area. Allow at least 4 hours for chilling before serving. From TOH Cookbook. I like changing out the cantaloupe with fresh pineapple and/or grapefruit slices (which sometimes means a bit of sugar added to balance the tartness), or I have added blueberries also just as a topping.

FRESH FRUIT SALAD



Fresh Fruit Salad image

I was looking for a light meal for brunch and decided to toss every type of fruit I had in the house into a yogurt-based salad for lunch. It went over well with my lunch guest who is a fussy eater. My sister actually asked for seconds. The nice thing about this is you make what you need at the time and don't have to bother with leftovers. However, it does keep well for a few days as long as it is refrigerated. Serve in individual dishes with crackers.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of fruits: The more variety of fruits you use, the more flavorful and interesting your salad will be. Try to include a mix of sweet, tart, and juicy fruits.
  • Cut the fruits into bite-sized pieces: This will make them easier to eat and will help to prevent them from getting bruised.
  • Add some sweetness: If your fruits are not very sweet, you can add a little bit of sugar or honey to taste. You can also add a flavored syrup or liqueur for a more complex flavor.
  • Add some acidity: A little bit of acidity can help to balance out the sweetness of the fruits. You can add lemon or lime juice, or use a vinegar-based dressing.
  • Add some crunch: Adding some crunchy elements, such as nuts, seeds, or granola, can add texture and interest to your salad.
  • Chill the salad before serving: This will help to keep the fruits fresh and crisp.
