Creamy Greek Yogurt Fresh Fruit Salad

While I do enjoy a classic fresh fruit salad and fruit cocktail salad, there's something extra delicious about adding a Greek yogurt twist. It's still very simple, yet it gives the fruit dessert a delightfully creamy touch.

This easy fruit salad combines a fresh assortment of fruit with Greek yogurt, honey syrup, and a little bit of lime juice. It's the perfect dessert to enjoy during all of your summertime activities - plus, kids will love it too!

🥘 Ingredients

When it comes to choosing your assortment of fruit, there are truly no wrong choices. For the best results, pick out the freshest produce you can find.

• Greek Yogurt - 5.3 ounces of Greek yogurt.
• Honey Syrup - 1 tablespoon of honey syrup. Mix equal parts honey and warm water to make the syrup.
• Lime Juice - 1-2 teaspoons of lime juice, to taste.
• Seasonal Fruit - 4 cups of assorted seasonal fruit. *See notes

🔪 How To Make Greek Yogurt Fruit Salad

Greek yogurt fruit salad is incredibly easy and quick to prepare, especially since there is no cooking involved. In fact, all you need is a chef's knife, a cutting board, a mixing bowl, measuring cups, and a silicone spatula set to get started.

This recipe will make approximately 4 servings. If you are feeding a larger group, you can always scale up on the ingredients.

1. Mix ingredients. Combine 5.3 ounces (150.3 grams) of Greek yogurt with 1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) of honey syrup and 1-2 teaspoons (5-10 milliliters) of lime juice in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Mix until smooth and well combined.
2. Prep fruit. Wash and chop 4 cups (800 grams) of assorted seasonal fruit as needed. Add to the Greek yogurt dressing and fold in to combine.
3. Chill & serve. Cover with cling film and chill if desired, or serve immediately.

💭 Angela's Tips & Recipe Notes

• For the Greek yogurt - mixed berry flavor is my recommendation, strawberry is a close second, and banana, vanilla, or plain can also be used. I use Oikos triple zero brand yogurt.
• 4+ cups of fresh seasonal fruit - I used 2 medium bananas (sliced), 8 ounces strawberries (sliced), 8 ounces blueberries, 4 ounces raspberries, and 2 cuties mandarin oranges (peeled, and each section cut in half).
• The honey syrup makes blending the honey with a cold yogurt easier and prevents the honey from clumping.
• If you'd prefer your fruit salad to be dairy-free, feel free to use your favorite dairy-free yogurt alternative. A coconut milk or almond milk yogurt would be delicious.
• You can include other ingredients like vanilla extract or a sprinkle of cinnamon for extra flavor. Also, chopped nuts or granola can add a nice crunchy texture, if preferred.

🥡 Storing

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in your refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. Note that depending on the fruits that you use, some of them may release juice over time and become soggy.
