Are you ready for Christmas?
Me? Nope wish I was but I haven't even wrapped a present yet! Can you say procrastination.
This little Christmas Fruit Salad helped start to put me in Christmas mode this morning.We always make a special fruit salad and some kind of protein Christmas morning to help counter act all the sweets we consume.
I love pomegranates, pineapple and kiwi which makes for a pretty red, white and green salad.
We added banana's this morning and a green apple too.. The perfect combo to enjoy with yogurt. So easy and delicious.
It even passed the taste buds of my little Gordon Ramsey's I've raised. My boys hold nothing back with how they feel about someones cooking or what's being served usually to my embarrassment. I don't know how many times I've asked for them to just push something to the side of their plate if they dislike it, but to date it usually ends with them very loudly expressing their dislike of a dish. Sometimes followed with you make this better, me turning beat red, and trying to shoot them the you need to be polite evil eye or no dessert.
Now don't let me make you think this only happens when we are at someone else's house they've had no problem letting Colt or I know if somethings not to their liking. I know if it passes their pallets it's blog worthy. The funny thing is non of my kids are actually picky, as long as the foods cooked to perfection.
They're just particular. Hence the budding Gordon Ramsey's.
Ignore the orange it ended up having nothing to do with this little fruit salad.
Colt was going to add it, but it didn't really need it.
You'll need 1/2 a pineapple skinned and diced, 1-2 banana's, 3 Kiwi's peeled and diced, 1 apple cored and chopped and seeds from 1 pomegranate.
Toss together until well combined. Serve plain or with a side of yogurt.

What beautiful colors! There's nothing better and more healthier than a fruit salad for dessert!
Gorgeous Christmas fruit salad, Serena! Enjoyed reading the funny story about your boys blurting out their dislike for certain dishes. As they say, boys will be boys. Nothin' is going to change THAT! Warmest wishes to you and yours for a meaningful and joyous Christmas holiday! xo
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! :) ela
What a gorgeous salad and I'm pretty sure Gordon would approve. Heck I think he'd probably join in with a fork.
Merry Christmas!
Great way to use kiwi fruit.Thank you very much for the recipe.
I made this for a Christmas Brunch this past weekend. Not only were the fruit colors so pretty but it tasted delish!
