  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 cup purple grapes, stems removed

Instructions

  1. Wash all fruit, remove stems and rinds, and cut into bite sized pieces.
  2. Add most of the fruit to a bowl, reserving some to decorate the top. Toss to combine.
  3. Arrange the reserved fruit in lines of colors in rainbow order: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple.

Equipment

Notes

Fruit wash - 1 part white vinegar to 8 parts water. Let fruit such as strawberries, grapes, and blueberries soak in the fruit wash for about 15 minutes then drain. The fruit will not taste like vinegar because it's so diluted with water.

 

Serve this fruit salad on a platter, casserole dish, or a bowl. Or make individual portions in clear cups with lids.
