Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Strawberries
- 1 cup Blueberries
- 1 cup Pineapple chunks
- 2 Bananas
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 0.5 cup Chopped pecans
- 0.25 cup Shredded coconut (optional)
Instructions
Wash the strawberries, blueberries, and pineapple chunks thoroughly. Pat them dry with a clean paper towel.
Hull the strawberries and slice them into halves or quarters depending on size.
Peel and slice the bananas into 1/4-inch rounds.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the strawberries, blueberries, pineapple chunks, and banana slices.
In a separate smaller bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt and honey until smooth and evenly combined.
Gently fold the yogurt mixture into the fruit mixture, ensuring all the fruit is evenly coated.
Add the chopped pecans to the bowl and fold them into the mixture. If desired, sprinkle in the shredded coconut for added texture and flavor.
Line a 9x13-inch baking pan or a similar-sized freezer-safe dish with parchment paper for easy removal.
Pour the fruit and yogurt mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Cover the pan with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm.
When ready to serve, remove the frozen salad from the freezer and let it sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes to soften slightly.
Cut the frozen fruit salad into squares or scoop sections out with a spoon to serve. Enjoy immediately on a hot day for a refreshing, healthy dessert or snack.
