Categories     Fruit Desserts

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pineapple
2 quarts strawberries
2 mangoes
30 ounces mandarin oranges (drained)
5 kiwi
3 bananas
1 teaspoon lime juice
1 tablespoon sugar (optional)

Steps:

  • Wash all the fruit before getting started with prep. I like to soak any type of fresh fruit or vegetable in a mixture of vinegar and water for about 10 minutes, then rinse well before preparing or eating.
  • Core, peel, and chop the pineapple into chunks; then add them to a large mixing bowl.
  • Stem, then slice the strawberries into the bowl.
  • Peel and slice the mangoes into the mixing bowl, as well.
  • Next drain the mandarin oranges, and add them to the mixture.
  • Peel and chop the kiwi into chunks; then add the kiwi chunks to the fruit mixture.
  • Peel and slice the bananas into chunks, and add them to the mixing bowl.
  • Squeeze fresh lime juice into the fruit mixture.
  • If desired, add a tablespoon of sugar.
  • Give everything a good stir, mixing all the fruit together until you have a hodge podge of colorful fresh fruit all combined together.
  • Finally, add the fresh fruit mixture to plastic cups or containers, and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe oranges: Select oranges that are heavy for their size and have a deep orange color. Avoid oranges with blemishes or soft spots.
  • Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will make it easier to cut the oranges and prevent the fruit from tearing.
  • Cut the oranges into uniform pieces: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Don't overcook the oranges: Overcooked oranges will become mushy and lose their flavor. Cook them just until they are tender.
  • Add other fruits to your fruit cups: Try adding other fruits to your fruit cups, such as berries, grapes, or melon. This will add variety and flavor to your dish.
  • Garnish your fruit cups with mint or a dollop of whipped cream: This will make your fruit cups look more appealing and taste even better.

Orange fruit cups are a delicious and refreshing treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are also a great way to get your daily dose of fruits.
