Can I Use Frozen Fruit?

I wouldn’t recommend making this fruit salad with frozen fruit, since once thawed they can be mushy. Frozen mango does seem to hold up fine, so it might be an exception. Fresh fruit is best, but if the ingredients in the recipe are not in season when you make the salad they can be substituted for a variety of in-season fruit.

Vegan Fruit Salad with Lime Juice - Three Little Chickpeas

Description

This homemade vegan fruit salad tossed in lime juice is a delectable combination of sweet and tart for a healthy side dish.

Ingredients

Scale

2 bananas, sliced into coins
2 cups (300 g) red grapes, halved
2 cups (260 g) strawberries, sliced

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

If you’re using mandarin oranges from a jar, drain before measuring.
Then add the sliced bananas, grapes, strawberries, oranges, and kiwis to a large bowl.
Zest the lime, then juice it and add it to the fruit.
Toss and serve, it’s best consumed the day it’s made.

Notes

The fruit can all be chopped one day in advance, except for the banana. Wait to toss with the banana, lime juice, and zest until the day you serve the salad.
