Fresh Twist Fruit Salad

This Fresh twist fruit salad is savory and refreshing all at the same time. I’m actually serving this salad as a side dish to my Springtime Quiche for Easter brunch.

Pair this incredible spring salad with a quiche for a brunch to remember.

First things first, let’s talk about the star of our salad: apples. Crisp, juicy, and bursting with flavor, apples provide the perfect crunchy base for our fruit salad. Whether you prefer the sweetness of Honeycrisp or the tartness of Granny Smith, there’s an apple out there for everyone.

Next up, we’ve got blueberries – nature’s little flavor bombs. These tiny, vibrant berries add a pop of color and a burst of sweetness to our salad. Packed with antioxidants and vitamins, blueberries not only taste great but also give our bodies a healthy boost.

The twist in this fresh twist salad:

Now, let’s talk about the unexpected twist: dill. While you might typically associate dill with savory dishes like salads and soups, its fresh, herbaceous flavor pairs surprisingly well with fruit. Just a sprinkle of chopped dill adds a refreshing and aromatic element to our salad that takes it to the next level, giving the salad it’s title of Fresh Twist Fruit Salad.

Last but certainly not least, we have feta cheese. Creamy, tangy, and slightly salty, feta adds a rich and indulgent dimension to our fruit salad. Its crumbly texture contrasts beautifully with the crispness of the apples and the juiciness of the blueberries, creating a harmonious balance of flavors and textures.

Simply toss your chopped apples and blueberries with a handful of chopped dill and crumbled feta cheese, into a bed of beautiful mixed greens. To add just a bit of crunch, top it all off with some sliced and toasted almonds. Now you’ve got yourself a refreshing and unique fruit salad that’s sure to impress at your next gathering. So why not give this Fresh twist Salad a try and let your taste buds dance with delight?

Ingredients

Scale

Salad:

2 cups mixed baby greens

1 apple, cut into chunks

1/2 cup of blueberries

2 stalks of sliced green onions

2 Tbsp celery, sliced

12 tsp of fresh dill

1/4 cup feta ( I love Odessey feta cheese, it comes as a block in brine and I can cut it up in small chunks and use as much as I want. It’s full of that salty, creamy goodness that we love about feta.

1 Tbsp toasted sliced almonds (I buy them toasted)

Dressing:

1/4 cup MCT oil, grape seed oil, or liquid coconut oil.

2 Tbsp white balsamic vinegar

1/2 lemon, juiced

Salad Dressing Seasoning, by Litehouse (I think they have the best freeze dried seasoning and I keep a stash at all times.)

Salt and pepper

Toss together veggies and fruit, top with Feta, toasted almonds, dill, and serve.


Notes

It’s a great addition to any brunch, and a way to get your fruit and veggies mingling together.
