Erin's Creamy Garlic Fruit Salad

Erin wrote to us, "I made up these recipes myself." This sounds like such a wild combination, we'll have to try it. We are all big garlic fans here at Spatulatta but we've never tried it on fruit.

Creamy Garlic Fruit Salad

What you ll need:

1 apple (any kind)
steak knife
7-8 medium-sized strawberries
1 banana
some paper towels
cutting board
two salad bowls
two forks
salad tosser
½ cup of Larosa a Creamy Garlic Dressing
½ a bag pre-made salad mix
¼ of cup of shredded cheddar cheese

Directions:
1. Rinse the strawberries and the apple. Dry them off with paper towels. Then peel the banana. Place all the fruit on the cutting board. Chop them with the steak knife into bite sized pieces.

2. Divide the pre-made salad mix into the bowls. Then throw equal amounts of each fruit into the bowls.

3. Now divide the creamy garlic dressing over the bowls. Use the salad tosser to mix it all up. Make sure the fruit and salad mix are evenly covered with the dressing.

4. Sprinkle the cheddar cheese over the salads.

5. Dip a fork in each one and enjoy the sweet and savory goodness. Serves two.

Tips:
1. You could add strips of chicken breast into the salad. They would be even better if they were marinated in lemon juice.

2. Try the different kinds of pre-made salads for this recipe.

3. It would be even more delicious delicious if there was more fruit in the salad.

Serving Suggestion:

You could take a pineapple and cut off the head. And then you could scoop out all the fruit inside (include it in the salad) then serve the salad in those little pineapple bowls you just made. Perfect for Hawaiian themed parties.
