LEE'S FRUIT SALAD



Lee's Fruit Salad image

This was served at a little sandwich shop that was located in the office building where I used to work. During the summer I make this several times a week - it's so delicious and refreshing! I like it with red grapes, but green will work as well!

Time 15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/4 medium watermelon
8 ounces strawberries
1 bunch seedless grapes
1 cup orange juice
4 -6 tablespoons sugar
1/2-1 teaspoon cinnamon

Steps:

  • Cut the watermelon into small cubes, or make balls using a melon baller.
  • Slice the strawberries.
  • Cut each of the grapes in half.
  • Mix all fruits in a bowl.
  • Stir the sugar and cinnamon into the orange juice until both are dissolved. Placing in a jar and shaking works well for this too (the amount of sugar and cinnamon may be adjusted to your personal taste).
  • Pour the juice over the fruit and stir until well coated. You may not use all of the juice mixture, but don't use too little - make sure all of the fruit is well coated.
  • Chill well.

PERFECT SUMMER FRUIT SALAD



Perfect Summer Fruit Salad image

The perfect fruit salad for a backyard bbq or any occasion. There are never leftovers! This is one of my favorite fruit salad recipes, as I think the sauce really makes it. This salad is tastier the longer you can let it soak in its juices. I prefer 3 to 4 hours in the refrigerator before I serve it. Enjoy.

Katie loved visiting the various Mexican-American fruit stands during her time in Los Angeles. The vendors would sprinkle fruit cups with fresh lime juice and the popular chile-lime salt Tajin. Inspired by those stops, she created this larger format fruit salad that has a hint of spice. The result is a refreshing and irresistible snack.
