PERFECT SUMMER FRUIT SALAD

The perfect fruit salad for a backyard bbq or any occasion. There are never leftovers! This is one of my favorite fruit salad recipes, as I think the sauce really makes it. This salad is tastier the longer you can let it soak in its juices. I prefer 3 to 4 hours in the refrigerator before I serve it. Enjoy.

I made this and took it to a party last weekend and is it ever knock your socks off good! To make it I chopped the lettuce up and put into one bowl and mixed the fruit and put into another bowl and refrigerated until time to serve. Just mix it all together and add the dressing and stand back! There weren't any leftovers. I'm just guessing on the servings because I didn't count. LOL! It makes a ton though!

Tips for Making the Best Fruit Salad

  • Use fresh, ripe fruit. The flavor of your fruit salad will only be as good as the fruit you use, so make sure to select fresh, ripe fruit that is at its peak of flavor.
  • Choose a variety of fruits. A good fruit salad should have a variety of colors, textures, and flavors. Try to include a mix of fruits that are sweet, tart, juicy, and crunchy.
  • Cut the fruit into bite-sized pieces. This will make it easier to eat the fruit salad and will help to prevent it from becoming mushy.
  • Add a little bit of sweetness. If your fruit is not very sweet, you can add a little bit of sugar or honey to taste. You can also add a splash of fruit juice or liqueur.
  • Chill the fruit salad before serving. This will help to keep it fresh and flavorful.

Conclusion

Fruit salad is a delicious and refreshing dish that is perfect for any occasion. By following these tips, you can make the best fruit salad possible. Enjoy!
