Note

To keep apples and bananas from browning, toss them in lemon or lime juice immediately after cutting.

This salad is best served immediately after preparation. If making ahead, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours, but add delicate berries just before serving to maintain texture.

Feel free to customize the fruit selection based on seasonal availability and personal preference. Citrus segments, kiwi, or pomegranate seeds make excellent additions.

For a creamy variation, you can add a dollop of Greek yogurt or coconut cream.
