Recipe for Summer Fruit Salad

Summer Berry Recipe: Summer Fruit Salad
Ingredients
- 1 lb. strawberries halved &/or quartered
- 1 c. blueberries
- ¾ c. raspberries
- 1½ c. seedless red and/or green grapes halved (we usually don’t halve them & we use both!)
- 2 lg. bananas sliced
- 2 kiwi fruit peeled and sliced
- 1 c. fresh pineapple cubed
- 1 21 oz can of peach pie filling
- 3 tsp. vanilla extract
Instructions
- Clean the fruit and chop it up or halve things.
- In a large bowl, combine the strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, grapes, bananas, kiwi and pineapple.
- Gently fold in the pie filling and the vanilla. Sometimes instead of using the vanilla, we will substitute some whipped coconut milk or whipped cream. Just makes it into a fun creamy salad.
- Ideas: We have tried it with cherry pie filling at Christmas time (yum!) and Apple Pie Filling in the fall (another yum!), so feel free to change it up. Choose whatever fruit you wish to add and go to town.
- Chill until serving. So good!
Maybe I will try it in August – when there are grapes – without raspberries and blueberries, which are not grown here, and probably without bananas and the pineapple. And… may I use vanilla instead of vanilla extract or peaches instead of peach pie filling?
