Since I’ve been eating so many fruit smoothies lately, (checkout my top smoothie recipes here) I forgot how easy it is to throw together a
fruit salad – there really is no rhyme or reason to what you include. Mix in
your favorites and serve. This one started off as a melon salad and I added the
grape for the color and the strawberries are just a must have for me. I’ve been adding them to everything this summer, from green salads and breakfast bowls
to smoothies and desserts. It makes me wish I had kept up with the strawberry
plants my dad bought me when I was a half-hearted 4-H member in elementary school.
As always – if you grow any fruit you can save yourself some serious cash. If
not this salad could easily cost $10 (but that’s for a large bowl that serves
4-6 people). I used about a half of the cantaloupe and melon so there was
plenty of leftover un-cut for other uses throughout the week.
