Fun Fruit Salad

Fruit, as I think has been established by now, is one of my favorite foods.

Fruit salad, therefore, is one of my favorite things to make. It's super easy--doesn't require any cooking!--fast, and healthy.

Recipe

1 cantaloupe

1 pineapple

1 banana

1 apple

Chop the cantaloupe in half. From there, cut it into smaller sections until you have bite-size squares.

Cut the sides off the pineapple. Next, slice off the top and bottom. Then cut the pineapple into strips. After that, cut the fruit into small square pieces.

Cut the apple and orange into small pieces. 

Throw everything into a large bowl and eat with breakfast, lunch, or for dessert!

Tip: Buy your cantaloupe a day or two before you're going to use it. That way it has a change to ripen more.

Why: This super simple, healthy recipe is so versatile. It's perfect for a snack or as a side to all your meals. You can always add other fun fruit, too--grapes, pears, whatever you like best!

Mess-ups and Missteps: My only mistake was that I cut the cantaloupe incorrectly. To cut it the right way, first cut the fruit in half, then scoop out the insides. Next, half the halves. Keep cutting the fruit until it's in manageable strips. 

Once you've done that, cut the fruit in small squares, without slicing through the rind. Then slide your knife under the pieces, removing the fruit from the rind. Repeat with the remaining cantaloupe sections.
