Fruit Salad - Revisited
I make fruit salad a lot in the summer as a side dish for whatever we make for dinner that night on the grill. I seem to use a different combination of fruits each time, but I really enjoyed this combination so I think I will be repeating it quite a bit over the next few months. This combination of fruit really tastes great, and the different colors look really pretty together! This made a big bowl of fruit salad that would serve about 6-8 people.
Ingredients:
4 yellow peaches, chopped into bitesize pieces
2 mangos, peeled and chopped into bitesize pieces
2 apples, chopped into bitesize pieces
Juice from half of a lemon
1 small container of raspberries
Small bunch of green, seedless grapes (I used maybe 1/3 of the bag)
Sugar, if your fruit isn't fully ripe
Directions:
First, toss the chopped apples with lemon juice to prevent them from browning. Next, sprinkle a little sugar over the peaches and mango pieces if they need a little extra sweetness (I bought my fruit the same day I made the fruit salad so I did use a little sugar since the fruit wasn't fully ripened). Then, mix all the fruit together and serve. If you are making this ahead of time (which I did), you might want to mix the raspberries in right before serving so that it doesn't turn your other fruit red.
