Christmas Fruit Salad

This salad is a MUST TRY recipe and it’s one you’re going to need with all of the parties coming up this month! With all of the feasting and indulging, I love throwing this light and healthy Christmas fruit salad on the table (with the main course or the desserts — you choose!) to offset some of the sweets that I know I’ll be eating. It looks pretty and is so easy to make that you’ll make it your go-to potluck dish from now on! Throughout the Christmas season, I understand that it can sometimes be difficult to find fruit that looks fresh this time of year. Feel free to just shop around in your grocery store and see which red and green fruit looks best to you, and add more or less of some things if you find they’re on sale or just look good to you! Another seasonal dish that is perfect to make at this time of year is some cranberry salsa!

Ingredients to Make Christmas Fruit Salad

I love how it’s the colors of the fruits in this salad that make it extra festive! See the recipe card at the bottom of the post for all of the measurements.

Pear: This brings in a beautiful muted color and flavor to this salad. Red apples: You can use any kind of red apples. Pick your favorite and slice it up. Red and green grapes: Having both colors really adds to the dish.Kiwi: My kids love the kiwi in this! It’s not something we eat all of the time in the winter so it’s a real treat.Raspberries: You can never have enough raspberries. Pomegranate arils: The arils are the seed pods that are inside the pomegranate. Honey: This adds a sweet taste to the dressing.Lime juice: When you mix the lime juice with the honey then it takes away the sticky, thickness of the honey and mixes with it to make a dressing.

This Christmas fruit salad takes less than 10 minutes to throw together! You know it’s a winner when your salad tastes as good as it looks!

Use a trifle dish: If you really want to impress people with your fruit salad skills, try making red and green layers in a glass trifle dish for a fun presentation.Make this fresh: Don’t make it too far in advance: most fruit is best just after it is cut or sliced. The more fresh that your fruit salad is then the better it will be. Prepare the dressing ahead of time: You can easily make the dressing in advance to save yourself a few minutes on the big day! It can be prepared and refrigerated for 2-3 days before dressing your salad.

In the refrigerator: Your fruit salad will last for 3-5 days when stored in an airtight container. Add a splash of lemon juice to your salad before storing it to keep your fruit from turning brown.In the freezer: Christmas fruit salad will keep in the freezer for up to a month in an airtight container.
