Easy Fruit Salad Recipes

Our readers are some of the best cooks and send us some really good recipes. Here are some Easy Fruit Salad Recipes that are quick and easy to prepare. They make a delicious and healthy addition to any meal, party or get together!

This first fruit salad recipe is from our reader Bea who found it on the Mr. Food website. It seems like I always have leftover rice and this recipe is a good way to use it. It’s ok if you only have 1-1 1/2 cups left– You can still use this recipe. Just use what you have. Also, you can mix and match the fruit, using different kinds too.

  • Author: Rachel

Ingredients

Fruit
Sweetened condensed milk
Toasted coconut

Instructions

  1. Cut up any type of fresh, frozen or canned fruit that you have.
  2. Place it into a bowl.
  3. Pour just enough sweetened condensed milk on it to barely coat the fruit until the sweetened condensed milk clings to the fruit. Don’t drown it.
  4. Serve in parfait glasses if you like.
  5. Top with toasted coconut.

Notes

Rachel said that since she is the only one in her family who eats fruit, she keeps the sweetened condensed milk in the fridge in a container and then uses what she needs each day for her own individual servings.

The next fruit salad recipe is one I have used for decades and I love to make it for a refreshing fruit salad in the winter. I keep cans of tropical fruit in my pantry to use for this but you could use fresh fruit if you want – mango, papaya, pineapple, etc.

I like to use a combination of fresh and canned fruit. For some reason, adding one fresh ingredient to anything canned seems to lead people to automatically think the whole thing is fresh.

    Sounds yummy! Something I do for Christmas breakfast is waffles with fruit. I take a container of whipped topping, the regular size and mix a drained can of tropical fruit, pineapple and a fresh sliced banana, or a drained can of fruit cocktail. Mix well and place on top of a cooked waffle. My family loves it, and you can prepare it the night before (except add the banana prior to serving to avoid browning).
