Italian Style Fruit Salad – Made with Love and Happiness

Vincenzo’s Top Tip To Make Italian Style Fruit Salad

To keep it sweet

If you don’t want to add any extra sugar but you still want to keep the salad sweet, leave out the extra sugar and squeeze an orange over the top.

Choose a variety of fresh fruits

Pick a selection of colorful fruits such as apples, bananas, grapes, kiwi, oranges, and strawberries.

Cut the fruits into bite-sized pieces

It’s important to cut the fruits into small pieces so that they can be easily mixed together in the salad.

Keep it chilled

Keep it chilled until ready to serve, as it will taste better when served cold.
