Steps:
- In a large bowl, mix all fruit together.
- Gently fold yogurt into fruit.

- You can also make this a couple hours before and keep in the fridge, but I found that it was pretty watery the next day from all the fruit juices.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, ripe fruits for the best flavor and texture. Local, seasonal fruits are ideal.
- If you're using a mix of fruits, try to include a variety of colors and textures for a visually appealing salad.
- For a sweeter salad, use more fruits that are naturally sweet, such as berries, bananas, and mangoes.
- For a tangier salad, use more fruits that are acidic, such as citrus fruits, pineapple, and kiwi.
- If you're using a yogurt that is plain or unsweetened, you may want to add a little honey or maple syrup to taste.
- For a thicker, creamier salad, use Greek yogurt or skyr.
- For a lighter, more refreshing salad, use regular yogurt.
- Top the salad with chopped nuts, seeds, or granola for added texture and flavor.
- Serve the salad immediately or chill it for a few hours before serving.
