Patriotic Fruit Salad

I am planning on hosting a barbecue this 4th of July but I really wanted to make it healthier than the traditional barbecue. So I came up with this Patriotic Fruit Salad. It’s full of fresh berries and flavor. Plus there isn’t any added fat such as whipped topping. It’s Simple and delicious!

The thing I love about this recipes (aside from being delicious) is that it can be made in about 5 minutes. That means if you are invited to a gathering last-minute or just forgot to grab something to bring, you can make this and show up with something appetizingly pleasing.

This also great to make ahead of time and store into the fridge so when you feel like munching, you have a healthy option all ready to go!
