Creamy Fresh Fruit Salad
This creamy fresh fruit salad is light, refreshing, and perfectly balanced with real fruit and a simple yogurt-based dressing. Naturally sweetened with honey and brightened with fresh lime, it is a healthier crowd-pleaser for potlucks, gatherings, or an everyday snack.
Ingredients
Fresh Fruit
- 2 cups strawberries hulled and halved
- 2 cups seedless grapes red or green
- 1 cup mandarin orange segments drained if canned
- 1 cup pineapple chunks fresh preferred
- 2 kiwi peeled and sliced
- 2 bananas sliced just before serving
Creamy Yogurt Dressing
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt full-fat or low-fat
- 3 tbsp honey adjust to taste
- 2 tbsp fresh lime juice
- 1 tsp lime zest
Instructions
- Wash, prepare, and thoroughly dry all fruit except the bananas. Add the prepared fruit to a large mixing bowl.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, honey, lime juice, and lime zest until smooth.
- Taste the dressing and adjust sweetness if needed.
- Pour the dressing over the fruit and gently fold until evenly coated.
- Slice and fold in the bananas just before serving to prevent browning.
Notes
For best results, use ripe but firm fruit and avoid overdressing. If making ahead, store fruit and dressing separately and combine shortly before serving. Unsweetened plant-based yogurt works well for a dairy-free version.
