Recipe View Dress and Serve: Just before serving, pour the chilled poppy seed dressing over the fruit salad. Gently toss to ensure all the fruit is evenly coated. Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture. (5 minutes)

For a smoother dressing, ensure your banana is very ripe.
Feel free to adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to your liking. A pinch adds a lovely warmth, but it can be omitted for a milder flavor.
If you're preparing the salad ahead of time, dress the fruit just before serving to prevent it from becoming soggy.
Consider adding other fruits like kiwi, mango, or pineapple for a tropical twist.
A drizzle of honey or maple syrup can enhance the sweetness of the dressing, especially if your fruit is not very ripe.

    I tried this with grilled pineapple and mango - YUM!

  • Adonis Cartwright

    My kids loved this! Finally, a way to get them to eat more fruit. I left out the cayenne pepper for them.

  • Luna Wyman

    This recipe is a lifesaver! I needed a healthy and impressive dessert for a potluck, and this was a huge hit. The poppy seed dressing is unexpectedly delicious!

  • Curtis Becker

    The orange juice made the grapes bitter after about 30 minutes, so make sure you don't add the orange juice until you're about to eat!

  • Vincenzo Mcglynn

    I made this for breakfast and it was amazing. The cayenne pepper adds such a surprising kick!
