Simple Fresh Fruit Salad Recipe
Time: 15 minutes | Serves: 4
This easy, colorful fruit salad is perfect for a quick snack, dessert, or side dish. It uses fresh, seasonal ingredients and a light dressing to enhance natural flavors.
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh strawberries (hulled and sliced)
- 2 kiwis (peeled and diced)
- 1 banana (sliced, done last)
- 1 cup green/red grapes (halved)
- 1 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or canned, drained)
- Dressing:
- ¼ cup fresh orange juice (from 1 small orange)
- 1 tsp honey (optional, for sweetness)
- 1 tsp lemon juice (prevents browning)
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Wash & Prep Fruits
Rinse strawberries, grapes, and kiwis under cold water. Pat dry with a clean towel.
- Strawberries: Hull (remove green tops) by pushing a straw from the bottom up. Slice into halves/quarters.
- Kiwis: Peel with a peeler or cut in half and scoop flesh with a spoon. Dice into small cubes.
- Grapes: Cut each in half (critical for kids to avoid choking).
- Pineapple: If fresh, cut into chunks; if canned, drain syrup.
- Banana: Slice into rounds right before mixing (avoids browning).
2. Make the Dressing
In a small bowl, mix orange juice, honey (if using), and lemon juice. Stir until honey dissolves.
3. Combine & Toss
Place all prepped fruits (except banana) into a large bowl. Add banana slices last. Pour dressing over the fruits and gently toss to coat (don’t overmix—soft fruits like banana can mash!).
4. Chill (Optional)
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 10–15 minutes to let flavors blend. Eat within 1 hour to keep banana fresh.
5. Serve
Spoon into bowls/cups. Garnish with a mint leaf (optional) for extra color.
Pro Tips
- Use seasonal fruits (e.g., peaches in summer, pears in fall) for maximum flavor.
- Skip honey if you prefer less sweetness—fruits are naturally sweet!
- Add a dollop of plain yogurt or whipped cream for a creamier version.
Enjoy your fresh, healthy fruit salad!
