Best Summer Abundance Fruit Salad Recipes
PERFECT SUMMER FRUIT SALAD
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.

SUMMER ABUNDANCE FRUIT SALAD
This is fresh and light, perfect for finishing off a meal of grilled summer fare. Use the freshest, ripest fruit you can find. I used to buy fruit salad like this many years ago from a seaside fruit stand -- I think they used their bruised fruit to cut up for the salad, and it was my favorite thing to buy at the beach. The "cooking" time is actually chilling time, to allow the fruit to macerate and the mint flavor to spread through.

Steps:
- Dice peach and plums into 1/2-inch size (approx. 1 cm).
- Slice grapes in half lengthwise.
- Finely mince the mint leaves.
- Mix all the fruit and the mint leaves in a bowl with 3 Tbsp of sugar. Cover and set aside in refrigerator for at least an hour.
- Just prior to serving, mix remaining 1 tbsp sugar and vanilla with the heavy cream, and whip until it holds soft peaks.
- Mix the fruit thoroughly one more time, some of the raspberries will have macerated to juice, and that is deliciously fine!
- Serve fruit in bowls or glasses (or paper cups if you want to).
- Top each serving with a dollop of whipped cream.
