Notes

  • Use the freshest, best quality fruit available to you, ideally fruit that's in season
  • For best results, don't skip the resting time. Let the mixed fruit sit in the fridge for an hour, to allow the natural sweetness to emerge and for it to chill. The longer the better!
  • If you choose to add banana, add it right before serving. Many fruit salad recipes will have sliced banana as one of the ingredients. You can add banana to this recipe, but I don't recommend adding it until you're just ready to serve the salad, as it will get mushy and slightly brown as it sits in the fridge.
  • Cut your fruit into similar sized pieces. This will allow each of the fruits to soak up the dressing evenly, and makes it easier to eat.
  • This recipe has only about 3.5 grams of added sugar per serving! The rest of the sugar is natural sugar from the fruit.
