Ingredients
  

For the Fruit Combination
  • 1 medium Apple Provides sweetness and crunch; substitute with pears if apples are unavailable.
  • 1 cup Blueberries Adds color and antioxidants; feel free to use any seasonal berries or fruits of similar texture.
  • 1 cup Grapes Adds juiciness and sweetness; you could substitute with chopped kiwi for a different flavor.
  • 1 cup Strawberries Provides tang and vibrant color; swap with any berry based on your preference.
  • 1 cup Pineapple Chunks Adds a tropical element; both fresh or canned (drained) can be used.
For the Creamy Base
  • ½ cup Greek Yogurt Acts as the creamy base, providing protein and tang; sour cream is a suitable substitute for a similar texture.
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon Juice Prevents browning and enhances flavor; fresh lemon juice is optimal, but bottled also works in a pinch.
For Optional Sweetness
  • ½ cup Marshmallows Adds sweetness and texture; feel free to omit for a healthier version.

Equipment

Step-by-Step Instructions

  5. Gently fold the fruits and yogurt together until evenly coated, being careful not to bruise the berries.
  6. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 3 hours to allow flavors to meld.
  7. Serve chilled in bowls, ensuring an inviting presentation.
