LIGHT AND LEMONY FRUIT SALAD/DESSERT



Light and Lemony Fruit Salad/Dessert image

DD#2 needed a quick, light "something" to take to a picnic an hour after she got home from work. I remembered reading a salad recipe with a package of pudding added so I opened the cupboard and started draining and dumping. She came home with an empty bowl and requested I make more for home. That's a good sign I think! (Cooking time is for refrigeration)

Tips for Making Surprise Fruit Salad:

  • Use a variety of fruits: The more variety of fruits you use, the more colorful and flavorful your salad will be. Some good options include berries, citrus fruits, melons, grapes, and tropical fruits.
  • Choose ripe fruits: Ripe fruits are sweeter and more flavorful than unripe fruits. When selecting fruits, look for ones that are plump and have a deep color.
  • Wash the fruits thoroughly: Before cutting and mixing the fruits, be sure to wash them thoroughly to remove any dirt or pesticides.
  • Cut the fruits into bite-sized pieces: This will make the salad easier to eat and will help the flavors to blend together.
  • Add a dressing: A simple dressing can help to enhance the flavors of the fruit salad. Some good options include a honey-lime dressing, a yogurt-based dressing, or a citrus vinaigrette.
  • Chill the salad before serving: This will help to keep the salad refreshing and flavorful.
