If you are headed to a 4th of July barbecue this weekend and still have no idea what to bring, might I suggest fruit salad? Fruit salad is super simple and it’s always a hit! I almost feel silly sharing a fruit salad “recipe” since they are so simple, but this combo was so tasty I thought I would share.
A lot of fruit salad recipes call for a simple syrup or honey, but honestly I think the natural sweetness from the fruit is just perfect. Plus, skipping the syrup step makes this apricot, berry, and nectarine fruit salad even quicker. (Also, as an RD I am all about cutting back on added sugar!) The recipe as written makes about 3-4 servings, but you can definitely scale it up for larger groups!
