Description

A refreshing and creamy fruit salad combining a medley of fresh berries and peaches tossed in a smooth sour cream dressing, enhanced with a touch of sweetness and vanilla. Perfect as a light dessert or snack, this vibrant salad is ready in just 10 minutes.


Ingredients

Fresh Fruits

  • 2 cups fresh raspberries, rinsed and pat dry
  • 2 cups fresh blackberries, rinsed and pat dry
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, rinsed and diced
  • 2 cups fresh blueberries, rinsed and pat dry
  • 2 cups fresh peach (yellow, white, nectarine…), diced

Dressing

  • 1 cup sour cream (or Greek yogurt)
  • 3 tablespoons sugar (or honey)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract


Instructions

  1. Prepare the Fruit: Combine the raspberries, blackberries, strawberries, blueberries, and diced peaches in a large mixing bowl, ensuring all fruits are fresh and properly rinsed to maintain texture and flavor.
  2. Make the Dressing: In a separate bowl, whisk together the sour cream, sugar (or honey), and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy, balancing sweetness and tanginess.
  3. Toss the Salad: Pour the creamy dressing over the mixed fruits and gently stir to coat all pieces evenly, blending the fresh fruit flavors with the rich creaminess. Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator to allow flavors to meld before serving.

Notes

  • Use Greek yogurt instead of sour cream for a healthier, protein-rich alternative.
  • Adjust sweetness by substituting sugar with honey or reducing the amount based on taste preference.
  • Chilling the salad for 30 minutes enhances flavor blending but serve within 24 hours to keep fruit fresh.
  • Choose ripe but firm fruits to avoid sogginess after mixing with the dressing.
