When I hear the phrase, “Fruit Salad”, for some reason I tend to flash back to my 1st grade food memory of that canned fruit salad that we often got at lunch at St. Helwigs. Fruit salad rated right up there with pancakes and y’all know it took me ages to get over that issue. However, this Berry Mint Fruit Salad recipe is an absolute favorite of mine which I have been making for a long time. It’s based off of one of Ingrid Hoffmann’s recipes and I tend to make it when the berries look really good because, after all, you eat with your eyes, right? The one flavor in this salad that seals the deal – the fresh mint. When you add that mint to the mix, the flavors pop. A drizzle of sweetness from the vanilla and maple syrup and you have a salad that will be one of the stars of your brunch table.
As we start to wrap up #BrunchWeek, I am thrilled that I can share one of my faves with you – I hope it becomes one of your favorite brunch dishes too!
On to the recipe:
