Step 1: Wash & Prep
Wash all fruits thoroughly under cold water. Peel bananas and mango, then slice or dice as needed. Drain canned fruit if using.
Step 2: Combine
Place all the fruits into a large mixing bowl. If using honey or orange juice for a natural glaze, drizzle it over the top.
Step 3: Toss Gently
Using a soft spatula or spoon, gently toss everything until well mixed. Be careful not to mash the bananas.
Step 4: Garnish & Serve
Top with fresh mint leaves if desired. Serve immediately, or chill in the fridge for 20–30 minutes for a cooler experience.
Tips & Variations
Add strawberries or blueberries for a berry boost.
Squeeze lemon juice over banana slices to prevent browning.
Swap in apples or kiwi for extra crunch and color.
Add a pinch of chopped basil or mint for a gourmet twist.
How to Store Fresh Fruit Salad
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Avoid keeping too long once bananas are added, as they brown quickly.
To prep in advance, cut and store all fruits except bananas. Add bananas just before serving.
