Ingredients

  • 2 cups hulled and sliced strawberries
  • 1 cup blueberries
  • 1 cup raspberries
  • 1 cup blackberries
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows
  • 1 cup vanilla yogurt

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, stir fruit and marshmallows together.
  • Just before serving, stir in yogurt.

Notes

  • Pick fruits that are in season so they look and taste great and usually cost less.
  • Balance your fruit salad with a mix of colors, flavors, and textures.
  • Make sure to wash and dry your fruits thoroughly JUST BEFORE you make the fruit salad.
  • Fruit salad is best served cold, so be sure to refrigerate it for at least an hour before serving.
  • If using fruit that oxidizes quickly, like apples or bananas, toss them in a bit of lemon juice to prevent browning.
  • Serve your fruit salad in a patriotic bowl or platter, or use a hollowed-out watermelon.
