Fruit Salad
- Ingredients

- 1 Tbsp brown sugar
- mint (for garnish)
Peel 3 oranges and cut out the segments. Squeeze out the juice. Cut remaining orange in half and squeeze out juice.
Rinse, trim and chop strawberries.
Halve the dragon fruit and use a melon baller to remove the inside flesh.
Combine the orange segments, orange juice, strawberries, dragon fruit, orange liqueur and sugar in a bowl. Cover and chill for 1 hour. Spoon into dessert glasses and garnish with mint leaves. Serve immediately.
Healthy, because
This juicy fruit salad is quickly prepared and is waiting for you in the fridge after lunch as a refreshing dessert! You will be served plenty of vitamins in jars, including the immune-strengthening vitamin C and cell-protecting provitamin A from oranges. Secondary plant substances from strawberries can also have a cancer-preventing effect.
Even smarter
The juicy fruit salad in a jar is also perfect as a classic meal prep - but you should prepare it the day before and store it in a sealable jar in the refrigerator overnight. In the morning it is served with 2 tablespoons of Greek yoghurt for a light breakfast to go.
