When you think of fruit, what do you see? Chances are that you see something sweet, something luscious and something that will make your taste buds dance in joy. Some people prefer to have fruit for dessert. Others may want to snack on it between meals. And others may even want to include it in their main meals as a side dish or a healthy breakfast option. This fruit salad brings together strawberries, kiwis, cotton candy grapes, pineapple and fresh mint to be juicy, bright and fresh, with the maple-walnut yogurt dip as a cravable finish.
I am a huge fan of using Walden Farms Maple-Walnut syrup in as many ways as I can. I've used it in my maple-balsamic pork chops, as a topping for my pumpkin banana pancakes and also in my roasted brussel sprouts.
