Cooking Games: Fruit Salad


I love fruit salad and it’s such an easy item to bring to a picnic or to another formal gathering. Fruit salad is generally well liked and there are so many different varieties of salad you can create, it’s easy to find something suitable for every occasion. This is why making fruit salad is one of my favorite cooking games.

Berry Salad – A berry fruit salad is simply a tossed collection of berries. Strawberries, blackberries, blue berries and raspberries are all gently washed and tossed together. I prefer to serve mine with a sweet dipping cream, but it’s not necessary.

Fruit Bowl – The watermelon fruit bowl is a personal favorite as well. For this one, I use a collection of melon balls and perhaps a few mandarin orange slices to keep things fresh and fun. The melon balls are easy to make and this is a pretty easy one to make as well that doesn’t cost much but looks wonderful.
