This fun and easy Easter fruit salad recipe with cute melon shapes makes a great healthy Easter dessert or breakfast for kids!
Easter is on it's way and I'm excited to have lots of new Easter recipes to share with you this year!
I've got some yummy Easter treats in store, including a much-requested variation on my White Chocolate Mini Eggs Fudge, but before I get too carried away with all the chocolate based Easter recipes, I thought I'd start with a healthy Easter dessert - this cute and easy Easter fruit salad!
This deliciously easy fruit salad has a super simple orange juice and honey dressing which would be delicious at any time of year, but I've made it extra special for Easter with the addition of some cute Easter themed melon shapes.
The great thing about this recipe is that it can be easily adapted to suit any occasion and would be great for healthy party food for kids - just use cookie cutters to cut the melon into any shape to suit your theme!
Easy Easter Fruit Salad
Ingredients (serves 4):
- 200g green grapes
- 200g red grapes
- 150g blueberries
- 150g strawberries
- 1 Tbsp orange juice
- 2 tsp honey or maple syrup
- 1 thin slice watermelon
- 1 thin slice honeydew melon
- 1 thin slice cantaloupe melon
Method:
Wash and slice the grapes lengthways, then place in a large bowl with the blueberries.
Cut and discard the tops from the strawberries, then cut the strawberries into quarters and add to the bowl.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the orange juice and honey (or maple syrup) until well combined.
Pour the juice and syrup mixture over the bowl of fruit, then gently mix it all together with a large spoon until the fruit is completely coated in the dressing.
Using Easter themed cookie cutters, cut shapes from the melon slices.
Divide the fruit salad between 4 small bowls.
Top each bowl with the melon shapes to decorate.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
