Fresh Fruit with Honey Mascarpone
Fresh Fruit with Honey Vanilla Mascarpone
Let’s be real: who doesn’t love a fresh, chilled, crisp fruit salad on a hot August afternoon? After mowing the lawn, washing the car, or running errands, I always crave something refreshing. An ice-cold beer is one option, but a cold, hydrating fruit salad is another perfect choice. Instead of just grabbing an apple or a handful of grapes, why not treat yourself to something truly refreshing?
This fruit salad not only helps you work on your knife skills but also provides a great serving of fiber and micronutrients. It's incredibly tasty, especially when made with in-season fruits and topped with our delicious mascarpone topping.
People often give me a “huh?” when I tell them I put a cheese spread on my fruit salad. That's because they haven't tried this sweet, creamy, silky mascarpone topping that perfectly complements the tangy bites of berries or pineapple. Mascarpone, with its delicate flavor, adds a luscious gloss to the fruit salad. A splash of honey and vanilla turns it into an irresistible treat suitable for any meal.
Give this no-brainer recipe a try! And if you’re feeling extra fancy, grill some stone fruits like peaches, nectarines, or even melon for an added layer of deep, satisfying flavor.
