How to Make Yummy Fruit Salad

  1. In a large bowl, combine 1 (13.5 ounce) can of full-fat coconut milk and 1 cup of plain Greek yogurt.
  2. Add 1/4 cup granulated sugar (or to taste) and the juice of 1 lime.
  3. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  4. Gently fold in 8 ounces of Cool Whip (or whipped cream).
  5. Taste and adjust sweetness by adding more sugar or a drizzle of honey, if desired.
  6. Drain all canned fruits thoroughly (reserve the juice for smoothies!). Add 1 cup of drained pineapple chunks, 1 cup of drained mandarin orange segments, 1 cup of drained peaches, and 1/2 cup of drained cherries to the bowl.
  7. Gently mix all ingredients until the fruit is evenly coated.
  8. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld. Serve chilled and enjoy!
  9. Garnish with fresh mint leaves (optional)
