This is fruit salad that my daughter (year 5) made for the Healthy Snacks for Healthy Teeth competition at her school, the closing date for entries was on Friday so I’m allowed to share it with you now…

She made it all by herself, except for halving the melon, even the styling is her own (using my props) but I helped her a bit with image editing.

INGREDIENTS

• half of a small honeydew melon (or other melon)
• 1 apple (cubed)
• 1 orange (peeled & cubed)
• handful of grapes (halved)
• 1 fruit yogurt tube (or 2 tablespoons of yogurt)

EQUIPMENT

• melon ball scoop

METHOD

1. Use melon ball scoop or plain spoon to hollow out inside of the melon to the mixing bowl.
2. Add apple, orange, grapes and stir.
3. Transfer salad back to the melon bowl.
4. Top with yogurt dressing and enjoy!

Makes 1 – 2 servings.

NOTES

It would also make a fantastic healthy desserts option.

Apple, orange and grapes can be replaced with other fresh fruits, the more seasonal the better.

Some tinned fruits (drained) could work here as well.

If you are wondering what to do with he other half of the melon, Cheese & Fruit Hedgehog may be the thing.

UPDATE

My daughter’s recipe won the competition and she received prize in a form of electric toothbrush!! :)
