    Fruit Salad
    ⌚ PREP TIME: 10 minutes

    Fruit Salad

    SERVES: 6

    INGREDIENTS:

    • 1 (8-ounce) can fruit cocktail packed in juice, drained
    • 1 (8-ounce) can pineapple tidbits packed in juice, drained
    • 1 apple, chopped
    • 1 banana, sliced
    • ½ cup (4 ounces) vanilla yogurt
    • Pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg

    STEPS:

    1. Wash the apple.

    2. Collect, cut, and measure all ingredients before starting to prepare the recipe.

    3. Drain the juice from the cans of fruit cocktail and pineapple into a medium bowl. Toss the chopped apple and sliced banana in the fruit juice to prevent browning, then remove from the juice.*

    4. In a larger bowl, mix fruit cocktail, pineapple, apple, and banana.

    5. In a small bowl, mix the yogurt and cinnamon or nutmeg.

    6. Serve fruit salad in small bowls or cups. Top each serving with a spoonful of the yogurt mixture.

    7. Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours. Eat within 3 to 5 days.

    * When you drain the canned fruit, save the juice to drink or to add to a smoothie.
