Red White & Blue Fruit Salad

Patriotic Fresh Fruit Salad - Strawberries, raspberries, pineapple, bananas and blueberries make a Star Spangled Fruit Salad taste even better on a patriotic holiday!

Everyone loves fresh fruit salad, so why not make it a patriotic one with the colors of the flag! Red strawberries and raspberries, almost white bananas and pineapple, and as blue as you can get blueberries make one beautiful fruit salad! Feel free to substitute the fruits you enjoy, even if they aren't red, white & blue.

Red, White & Blue Shortcakes - Use this fruit salad to make fresh fruit shortcakes with homemade buttermilk biscuits and fresh whipped cream. Doesn't that sound deliciously refreshing?

Fresh Fruit Salad Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1 quart fresh strawberries, rinsed, hulled and quartered or sliced
  • 1 sweet pineapple, cored and cut into 1" chunks
  • 1 pint blueberries, rinsed and picked over for loose stems and mold
  • 1/2 pint raspberries, clean without leaves or rot
  • 1 large ripe banana, sliced

 How to Make Fresh Fruit Salad

Directions: This is an easy-peasy, no-brainer fruit salad. Toss the strawberries, pineapple and blueberries in a large serving bowl. Arange the raspberries and banana slices on top. Don't mix them in, they're too fragile. That's it! Serves 6-10 depending on how big the bowls are. Refrigerate any leftovers.
