This month: Fruit Salad Recipes
Fruit Salad Recipes: In this issue of the Breakfast and Brunch Express, find a selection of easy summer fruit salad recipes for breakfast, brunch, or summer picnics.Hello!
With the summer months right around the
corner, lighter fruits can be a welcome change from many of the heavy
breakfast and brunch foods we are accustomed to eating. A fresh fruit
salad is light and refreshing and just enough to give you the energy
you need without slowing you down.
With so
many summer fruits at their peak of sweetness, this is a great
time to add sweet fresh pineapple, ripe strawberries, or plump
blueberries to your breakfast table. Fruit salads are easy to prepare
and taste great on a hot summer morning.
The fruit
salad recipes below are some of my favorites that I like to make this
time of year, but can be made year round as well. Besides
making a colorful side dish for a brunch
menu, fruit salads travel well for a picnic when you need a
dish to pass. They also make a colorful and simple food that can be
served for a graduation party or summer wedding shower.

salad recipes on my website.
Happy Eating!

A Helpful Cooking Hint:
If you need to cut chilled butter into a dry mix for a crumble or pie crust, freeze the butter, then use your cheese grater to "grate" the butter in (keep the paper around the stick of butter to keep it from softening in your hand). You get little shreds of butter that are then really easy to mix in or cut further if you need smaller pieces.
