Ingredients

Scale

Fruits

  • 1 cup Strawberries (washed and cut into bite sized pieces)
  • 1 cup Green Grapes (washed and halved)
  • 1 cup Red Grapes (washed and halved)
  • 1 cup Blueberries (washed)
  • 1 Apple (washed, cored, peeled, and diced)
  • 1 Banana (peeled and sliced)

Toppings and Dressing

  • ¼ cup Pecans (chopped)
  • 1 cup Plain Greek Yogurt
  • 12 tbsp Honey
  • ½ tsp Vanilla Extract
  • ½ tsp Almond Extract

Instructions

  1. Combine fruit: Place the strawberries, green grapes, red grapes, blueberries, and diced apple into a large bowl. If you plan to serve the salad later, wait to add the banana until just before serving to prevent browning.
  2. Make yogurt dressing: In a small mixing bowl, mix together the plain Greek yogurt, honey, vanilla extract, and almond extract until smooth and well combined.
  3. Fold and serve: Gently fold the yogurt dressing into the bowl of mixed fruit until evenly coated. Top the fruit salad with the chopped pecans, then serve immediately for best freshness and texture.

Notes

  • Add the banana just before serving to keep the salad fresh and prevent browning.
  • You can substitute pecans with walnuts or almonds if preferred.
  • The amount of honey can be adjusted based on your sweetness preference.
  • For a vegan version, substitute Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt.
  • This salad is best enjoyed fresh but can be refrigerated for up to a few hours.
