Ingredients
Scale
2 cups of strawberries, hulled and sliced
2 cups of blueberries
2 cups of bananas, sliced
1/4 cup of fresh mint leaves, chopped (optional)
1 tablespoon of honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
1 tablespoon of lime juice (to enhance flavors)
1 cup of yogurt (Greek for creaminess, or dairy-free as a substitute)
Instructions
Begin by hulling and slicing the strawberries, and then set aside. Rinse the blueberries under cold water and remove any stems. Slice the bananas just before mixing to prevent browning.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the strawberries, blueberries, and bananas. Gently toss the fruits together to maintain their shape.
Add in the lime juice, honey, and chopped mint (if using). Toss gently to combine without mashing the fruit.
Cover the fruit salad with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving. Scoop portioned servings into bowls and top each serving with a dollop of yogurt.
