  • For a vegan banana split salad, use dairy-free yogurt, whipped coconut cream, and chopped nuts instead of whipped cream and maraschino cherries.
  • To make a healthier banana split salad, skip the chocolate syrup and maraschino cherries. Instead, drizzle with honey or maple syrup and add chopped nuts or granola.
  • For a more decadent banana split salad, add a scoop of ice cream or frozen yogurt to the top.
  • Serve banana split salad immediately after assembling, or the fruit will start to brown.
