Salad Recipes - 5 Healthy and Simple to Make Fruit Salad
Recipes
Salads made of fruit are undoubtedly the most delicious that can be prepared. In
addition to being delightful in both appearance and flavor, they afford another
means of introducing fruit into the diet. As fruit is decidedly beneficial for
all persons with a normal digestion, every opportunity to include it in the diet
should be grasped. Some fruit salads are comparatively bland in flavor while
others are much more acid, but the mild ones are neither so appetizing nor so
beneficial as those which are somewhat tart.
Here are 5 types of simple to prepare healthy fruit salads to start off in a
week.
1) Mixed Fruit Salad
The combination of fruits given in the accompanying recipe makes a very good
salad, but it need not be adhered to strictly. If one or more of the fruits is
not in supply, it may be omitted and some other used. In case canned pineapple
is used for the salad, the juice from the fruit may be utilized in making a
fruit salad dressing.
1 grapefruit
2 oranges
1 banana
2 apples
2 slices pineapple
Salad dressing
Lettuce
Prepare the grapefruit and oranges according to the directions previously given.
Slice the banana crosswise into 1/4-inch slices and cut each slice into four
sections. Dice the apples and cut the pineapple in narrow wedge-shaped pieces.
Mix the fruit just before serving. Add the salad dressing, which may be
fruit-salad dressing, French dressing, or some other desirable salad dressing,
by mixing it with the fruit or merely pouring it over the top. Serve on salad
plates garnished with lettuce leaves. Place a maraschino cherry on top and this
is sufficient to serve for six person.
2) Fruit and Nut Salad
Slice two bananas, two oranges and mix them with one-half cup of English walnuts
and the juice of one-half lemon with French dressing. Serve on lettuce leaves.
3) Hungarian Fruit Salad
Mix together equal parts of banana, orange, pineapple, grapefruit and one-half
cup of chopped nuts. Marinate with French dressing. Fill apple or orange skins
with mixture. Arrange on a bed of watercress or lettuce leaves. Sprinkle with
paprika.
4) Russian Fruit Salad
Peel and pit some peaches, cut in slices and add as much sliced pineapple, some
apricots, strawberries and raspberries, put these in a dish. Prepare a syrup of
juice of two lemons, two oranges, one cup of water and one pound sugar, a half
teaspoon of powdered cinnamon, grated rind of lemon, add one cup red wine and a
half glass of rum. Boil this syrup for five minutes, then pour over the fruit,
tossing the fruit from time to time until cool. Place on ice and serve cold.
5) Summer Mix Fruit Salad
Any agreeable combination of fruits which may be obtained during the same season
will be suitable for summer mix salad. The combination given in the accompanying
recipe includes strawberries, pineapple, and cherries. However, pineapple and
cherries may be used alone, or strawberries and pineapple may be used without
the cherries, or red raspberries may be used to garnish such a salad.
3/4 c. strawberries, cut into halves
3/4 c. pineapple, cut into dice
3/4 c. sweet cherries, seeded
Lettuce
Fruit-salad dressing
Prepare the fruits just before serving. Put them together, place on salad plates
garnished with lettuce, and serve with the fruit-salad dressing.
