Ladies and gentlemen, get ready to elevate your snack game with this absolutely divine fruit bowl that’ll make your taste buds dance and your Instagram followers drool! As someone who’s tried countless fruit bowl combinations (and trust me, some were total disasters), I’ve finally perfected this 5-star recipe that’s both nutritious and gorgeous.
Let me tell you, this isn’t your basic fruit salad that your aunt brings to family gatherings. This is the kind of fruit bowl that makes people say, “OMG, where did you learn to make this?” _winks_
Here’s what you’ll need:
• 1 ripe mango, cubed
• 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
• 1 cup blueberries
• 1 kiwi, peeled and sliced
• 1/2 cup pomegranate seeds
• 2 passion fruits
• 2 tablespoons honey
• Fresh mint leaves
• Optional: 1/4 cup granola
• Optional: 2 tablespoons chia seeds
The secret sauce (literally):
• 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Okay, girlies (and guys), here’s how we make magic happen:
1. First, wash all your fruits thoroughly. Nobody wants a side of pesticides with their healthy snack, right?
1. Cut your mango into perfect cubes (I know it’s tricky, but you’ve got this!). Slice those strawberries and kiwis like the kitchen goddess you are.
1. In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, lime juice, and vanilla extract until smooth. This is our fancy drizzle that’ll take this bowl from great to “OMG, I need the recipe!”
1. Now for the fun part – assembly! Start with larger fruits at the bottom, then layer smaller ones on top. Think of it as creating edible art, honey!
1. Drizzle that yogurt mixture like you’re Jackson Pollock (but maybe with better aim 😉).
1. Sprinkle chia seeds and granola if you’re using them, and crown it with fresh mint leaves.

Pro tips from yours truly:
– Always use ripe fruits (but not too ripe – nobody likes mushy fruit!)
– Serve immediately for best results
– For an extra kick, add a sprinkle of chili powder (trust me on this one)
The best part? This bowl is totally customizable! Feel free to swap fruits based on what’s in season or what you’re craving. Sometimes I add dragon fruit when I’m feeling fancy, or coconut flakes when I want that tropical vibe.
This recipe serves 2-3 people, but honestly, I won’t judge if you eat it all yourself. We’ve all been there! 😉
