Fresh Fruit Salad

13/11/2017

Ingredients

• 300 ml plain low-fat yoghurt
• 150 ml sunflower seeds or chopped almonds
• Prepare fruit by peeling, coring, slicing and chopping according to your choice of fruit. Mix together gently.
• Serve 1 cup (250 ml) of fruit salad per person and add ¼ cup (60 ml) plain low-fat yoghurt and 2 tbsp (30 ml) sunflower seeds or almonds for a filling breakfast.

Method

Sprinkle with cinnamon or mint for a different flavour. Try to avoid adding honey, as the fruit is naturally sweet. Any nuts or seeds of your choice are delicious with this breakfast.

If preferred, serve fruit salad with ¼ cup (60 ml) homemade oats.

Enjoy ½ cup (125 ml) fruit salad as a snack portion between meals.

Did you know? One portion of whole fruit, the size of your fist = 1 portion of fruit; 1 cup (250 ml) of peeled and cut fruit for breakfast = 2 portions of fruit for the day.

Remember that lemon juice is a great seasoning when serving fruit. Add a few drops to 1 cup (250 ml) sliced fruit for extra flavour. This can also prevent the fruit from browning too quickly.
