Fancy Fruit Salad

Posted by MelissaE May 24, 2008

Great for Memorial Day BBQs! Fruit salad with yogurt honey dressing. Very easy one!

  • Fruit is the obvious main ingredient. I recommend watermelon, canteloupe, mango, strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, peaches, rasperries
  • Vanilla Yogurt
  • Honey
  • Cinnamon
  • Coconut flakes

Cut all fruit in bite-size pieces. Watermelon looks great if you cut it in small triangular wedges and garnish around the fruit salad. Use these fruits or any other of your favorites! Top with coconut flakes--dried cranberries and slivered almonds also work well on top. Dressing -- mix one cup of vanilla yogurt to about one tablespoon honey. Add cinnamon to taste.

Why is fruit good for you?

This one is really easy. A great recipe for summer...

Ingredients

  • Baby Spinach
  • Chopped Strawberries
  • Sliced Jicama
  • Toasted Almonds or Pine Nuts
  • Hard Boiled Egg
  • Avocado Chunks
  • Mushrooms

Dressing:

  • 1-2 tbsp Goat Cheese (depending on how thick you want it)
  • ½ Cup Olive Oil
  • ½ Cup Balsamic Vinegar
  • Garlic Salt
  • Italian Seasonings

Mix All together... you will have to whisk the goat cheese until it melts (the dressing will turn thick)
