Best Fruits for a Homemade Fruit Salad

Which fruits are best for your homemade fruit salad recipe? That totally depends on what you find on sale! You will need anywhere from 4 to 6 cups of fresh fruit for this recipe.

I went with nectarines, apples, green and red grapes, blueberries, strawberries, kiwi and canned pineapple. Why canned pineapple instead of fresh? because the pineapple juice from the can is what you make the honey yogurt glaze with!

Healthy Fruit Salad Recipe with Easy Yogurt Glaze

My one tip for making fruit salad with a yogurt glaze is to only add the glaze to the amount of fruit you are going to eat right then and there. As it sits, it becomes a bit watered down from the juice being given off from the fruit. It will still be delicious, but just not as creamy.

Easy Fruit Salad Recipe

Make up the easy yogurt glaze and put it in a glass mason jar in the fridge. Then, scoop out your healthy fruit salad into a bowl and add the desired amount of glaze. Both the fruit salad and the glaze should last for several days in the refrigerator.
