  • Total Time: 5 minutes
  • Yield: 8 servings

Ingredients

Fruit Salad Dressing

  • 2/3 cup vanilla yogurt (about 5 ounces)
  • 2 teaspoons freshly grated lemon zest
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (from one medium lemon)
  • 1 teaspoon poppyseeds

Instructions

  1. Combine Dressing Ingredients: In a medium bowl, add the vanilla yogurt, freshly grated lemon zest, fresh lemon juice, and poppyseeds. Use a whisk to thoroughly combine the ingredients until smooth and well blended.
  2. Dress the Fruit Salad: Pour the prepared dressing over a bowl of cut fresh fruit. Gently toss the fruit to evenly coat each piece with the lemon poppyseed dressing, ensuring every bite is flavorful and bright.

Notes

  • You can substitute plain yogurt and add a little honey or maple syrup if you prefer a less sweet dressing.
  • Use a variety of fresh, seasonal fruits for the best taste and texture.
  • For a dairy-free option, substitute the yogurt with a plant-based vanilla yogurt alternative.
  • Chill the dressing before adding to the fruit for extra refreshing results.
