In Fruit & Yogurt Parfaits
Fruit parfait is one of the easiest and prettiest ways to use that luscious summer fruit! You can use pudding, custard, yogurt, granola, and more to layer these yummy desserts. Use containers such as small glasses, mason jars, tall glasses or even glass mugs. Add a drizzle of honey or chocolate on top for extra sweetness.
In Salads
Tossing fruits in salads for a little bit of sweetness is always a great idea. You can also try carving fruits into intricate designs or simply using a melon baller to create luscious color fruit rounds.
Dipped in Chocolate
Fruit and chocolate are two items that pair well together. It can be a simple as dipping the fruit in dark, milk, or white chocolate. There are so many different fruits you can try with this one.
Homemade Popsicles
For the upcoming warm summer days, consider making fresh fruit popsicles as a healthier alternative to store bought popsicles that can be full of extra sugar. Take your favorite fruit and add them to a blender with a little bit of honey or healthy sugar substitute, if needed, and blend until smooth. Then pour into the molds and freeze overnight. Get creative by adding different layers of fruit puree or different chunks of fruit with each layer of puree.
Fresh Fruit Kabobs
Fruit kabobs are easy to make and even easier to eat. All you need is some fruit of your choice and skewers.
Use cookie cutters to make some fun shapes. Dressing up fruit is easy and fun and can be done together with the whole family or even be set up just for the kids to play with.
It’s a great way to get creative and enjoy the wonderful benefits fruit has to offer.
