Fruit Bowl With Luscious Lemon Cream
Fruit Bowl with Luscious Lemon Cream
This would be great on your Easter Buffet served as dessert or even as a fruit salad offering.
This stuff is addictive and so refreshing. RARELY do I take seconds on a dessert. With this one I did.
Servings: Serves at least 8
Ingredients:
3 pints strawberries, slice or cut into quarters
4 bananas sliced and tossed in lemon juice
1 pound red/purple grapes
2 cans mandarin oranges (drained)
5 kiwis – sliced
1 pint of blueberries
½ cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Instructions:
Mix your fruit up in a large bowl. Or layer fruit and serve in a big clear bowl. Serve in individual bowls with the Luscious Lemon Cream on the side for topping (recipe below).
