One, two or three!

What do you do when you have leftover ingredients from the Joust? And a fridge full of unused fruit? You make fruit salad! Or as “modern” publications call them….Fruit Cups. Seriously though, its a good way to increase your fruit intake. Chop up a whole batch of fruit, squeeze some lime, add some passionfruit pulp add a good amount of thick Greek yogurt and top with freshly toasted coconut. The final touch is to grate some fresh lime zest. Aaaahhh…I’m dreaming of tropical temperatures again!

I basically used what I had around. I chopped up some bananas and pears and squeezed some lime juice over them so they wouldn’t go brown. Add some oranges, kiwi fruit and mango and voila! The real treat was the lime zest. It provided the right amount of “zing” and “zestiness”. Mmmmm…and lets not forget the toasted coconut. Another added treat. I wish I could breakfast like this every day.
