Summer is in full swing and has been beautiful so far! All of this lovely weather has meant cookouts and pool side gatherings. I always offer to bring fruit salads to these types of gatherings. They make a delicious and nutritious summer treat, but the same old fruit salad can get boring after awhile!
Try this tasty twist on traditional fruit salad to kick your side dish up a notch!
Whisk 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract and the juice from 1 lime with 8 mint leaves
Fruit suggestions:
Grapes
Blackberries
Strawberries
Blueberries
Kiwi
Pineapple
RD tips:
Try to incorporate fruits with a variety of colors
If you don’t have time to chop all of the fruits, buy pre cut fruit platters and mix them in
The lime juice in the dressing helps keep the cut fruit fresh for longer
Be Healthy. Be Balanced.
