Recipe Notes
Tips and Substitutions:
-
- Be sure to use ripe and firm fruit- This fruit will last longer in the fridge.
- If you are making this salad ahead, hold in adding dressing- As fruit sits, it releases more juice. Adding the dressing ahead will increase the juice even more. Wait until ready to serve to add dressing then.
- Let fruit salad sit in a salad spinner basket- This will drain the extra juice and keep fruit crisp. Add juice back to salad when ready to serve.
- Substitute for honey- You can use maple syrup. This will also make this salad vegan friendly.
- Add seeds or nuts for an extra crunch- Hemp hearts, poppy seeds, walnuts, pecans, or sliced almonds all make great additions to this winter fruit salad if you are looking for some extra crunch.
