Ingredients
Scale
Fruit and Nuts
- 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 1 cup blueberries
- 1 cup raspberries
- 1 cup chopped pineapple
- 1 medium banana, sliced
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
Cream Mixture
- 1 cup vanilla Greek yogurt
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup whipped topping (like Cool Whip)
Instructions
- Combine Fruit and Nuts: In a large mixing bowl, gently mix the strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, pineapple, banana, and chopped nuts to create a fresh and colorful base.
- Prepare Cream Mixture: In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add vanilla Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract, then mix thoroughly until fully combined, creating a creamy and sweet dressing.
- Incorporate Whipped Topping: Gently fold the whipped topping into the cream mixture until light and fluffy, ensuring a smooth and airy texture.
- Mix Fruit with Cream: Pour the creamy mixture over the fruit and nuts. Stir gently and evenly to coat all pieces without breaking the fruit.
- Freeze: Transfer the mixture into a 9×13 inch dish or individual serving cups. Cover and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm enough to hold shape.
- Serve: Before serving, allow the frozen salad to sit at room temperature for 10 to 15 minutes to soften slightly, making it easier to slice or scoop.
Notes
- Substitute Greek yogurt with plain yogurt or a dairy-free alternative for different dietary needs.
- Swap in other fruits such as mango or kiwi for variety.
- For extra sweetness, drizzle maple syrup over the salad before freezing.
