Time to make:

15 minutes preparation

Ingredients

1 cup red fruit (strawberries, watermelon, red grapes, or red apple)
1 cup green fruit (honeydew melon, green grapes, or kiwi)
1 cup blue or purple fruit (blueberries, plums, or blackberries)
1 cup orange or yellow fruit (cantaloupe, pineapple, or mandarin oranges)
1 cup tan or white fruit (bananas or brown pears)
1 cup orange juice*

*If you use concentrate, follow instructions to mix concentrate with water.

Directions

Wash fruit.
If using kiwi or bananas, peel fruit.
Cut fruit into bite-sized pieces.
Toss fruit with the orange juice.

Tips and Variations

If you do not have fresh fruit, use frozen fruit or fruit canned in juice (avoid heavy syrup).
Mix apples in orange juice right away. The acid in citrus helps keep the fruit from turning brown.
Substitute 8 ounces (1 cup) of low-fat piña colada yogurt for orange juice.
Make a smoothie with the leftover fruit salad. Just add non-fat yogurt (any flavor) and blend in blender.
To prevent choking with small children, cut grapes and banana slices in half or quarters.
